‘I had the pleasure of working with Rob as the technical advisor on a project for a multinational insurance firm. He brought a keen technical expertise and demonstrated outstanding professionalism and flexibility throughout. During the execution, his impactful feedback and support were instrumental in driving success. Trustworthy, organised, and client-focused, Rob added significant value to the project. What truly sets Rob apart is his dedication to Continued Professional Development. Having first met him on a Crisis Management course, I was impressed by his humble approach and engaging manner despite his extensive expertise in the field. I highly recommend him for any future endeavours.’

‘Rob is a well-liked and an extremely hard worker. Rob has good all round 'can do' attitude and looks at the bigger picture when troubleshooting or looking for solutions. Rob is a great asset to any team and takes the lead pro-actively when required.’
Chris Darling – BU Infrastructure Services Manager Akzo Nobel
‘I worked with Rob in a large global consultancy company, in the Resiliency Services team running the Disaster Recovery testing on a Data Centre Consolidation programme, their customer being a large UK Bank. He possesses excellent technical ability, is highly personable, focussed, but above all he is always willing to go the extra mile to deliver exceptional service to his customers. Rob worked as a DR Consultant, delivering the planning and subsequent DR testing of ``on-prem`` IBM Cloud over 2 Data Centres. Over and above his day job, Rob was involved in driving the resolution of high-level issues and communicating at Director level within both organisations. Rob’s approach was always calm and considered, and he was a trusted sounding-board for the correct approach to take on a particular issue. I would highly recommend Rob to any potential organisation and I would willingly work with him again as a member of another team.’
Andy Fildes - Infrastructure Architect / Disaster Recovery Manager - IBM
‘Rob has a wealth of knowledge in many IT applications but his real talent lies in his ability to coordinate and document an organisations Disaster Recovery Strategy. He has worked hard to gain several Microsoft qualifications and seen as an expert in the field. DR can be a hard skill, with interest, to acquire but Rob not only has these skills he is constantly challenging himself and his strategy to cover a range of risks. Within the Telephony Strategy Rob’s input was invaluable due to the nature of importance Telephony has for many businesses. However the DR and Business Continuity was already in place to allow the Strategy to focus on its core areas. On marking the Telephony DR section in plan I can give a very high appraisal and I feel Rob would be a major asset to any business looking for a DR Specialist either on a permanent or contracting basis.’
