Simon, is a trouble shooter at heart with a good dash of creativity thrown in for good measure.

He started out as a developer after leaving university and worked for many of the companies at the time that were writing titles for the then hot and happening games machine of the day, the Commodore Amiga. This gave him a good chance to show his abilities in 68000 assembly language and later he moved to Intel 386 as the PC became more prominent. Not being one to take the easy route, he was self-taught, spending many a night trying to get the most of his code. To write code at such a low level requires total understanding of how a computer works inside and out, and gave Simon a wonderful platform to build his skills on. This would prove to be his main advantage as computers and systems evolved, he can clearly see inside technology, understand how it works and explain it to others.

As times changed Simon made the leap into a ‘proper job’ and took the chance to help build a start up business.

He was solely responsible for building the infrastructure for financial start up 4CAST Ltd. back in the mid 90’s. He began by developing the companies premier financial analysis software 4CAST Direct, which is still in use today some 10+ years later as are all the data centre systems running the companies website and online products. Simon worked closely with many financial institutions during this period to integrate the 4CAST platform, and established offices in New York and Singapore, further expanding his experience. Since then he has worked for a handful of financial institutions implementing various technologies and systems, and helping to maintain good future proof planning. This is where he extended his love of travelling abroad to hot countries as much as possible. Simon enjoys the fact that technology advances allow him to work from his Macbook Pro wherever in the world he may be.

Simon has been running SITC for nearly 4 years now and has established a nice group of clients. All of whom are still using our services, in fact we’ve expanded our offerings and our clients have responded by taking further services from us.

He’s also kept himself busy by setting up an online backup venture, The Backup Company.
