May 2003 - June 2009

Employed by Veterinary Solutions Ltd as a Development Engineer.

Veterinary Solutions Ltd are the leading UK developers/suppliers of practice management software and I.T. solutions for the veterinary profession. My position involved research and development of new products and technologies as well as systems administration, infrastructure planning, network management, security planning, information management and software engineering both for the company and their hundreds of client sites. I primarily worked with Linux, SCO OpenServer and Windows systems and developed using Perl, PHP, MySQL and shell scripts. I acted as a member of the company management team representing the Unix development department. My position became redundant due to company reorganisation.

Jul 2002 - May 2003

Working as Freelance IT Consultant / Training.

Jan 2002 - Jul 2002

Employed by Internet Business Services Ltd as a Development Engineer.

IBS developed and produced unique Linux based Internet connectivity and management systems tailored for SMEs, educational establishments and business centres. Following on from some contract work I was offered full-time employment with the company. Heavily involved in all technical aspects of the company my duties included administration of Win98/Linux LAN/WAN infrastructure as well as product development, construction, testing and on-site installation, user training and technical support. Unfortunately the company was forced to downsize in July and I was made redundant. The company ceased trading six months later.

Aug 2001 - Jan 2002

Working as Freelance IT Consultant / Training.

Jan 2001 - Aug 2001

Employed by Electronic Commerce One as an Assistant Systems Administrator. Promoted to Infrastructure Manager in March 2001.

A highly respected e-commerce consultancy, EC1 provided a full range of services from investment sourcing to full implementation of e-commerce projects. Although primarily responsible for the company's LAN/WAN infrastructure (Win95/98/NT/2K, Linux, Solaris, MacOS) I was also heavily involved in our client's e-commerce projects at both a development and project management level. From mail, web and DNS server management for 100+ client companies to development of major e-commerce projects this position offered a vast array of challenges and opportunities to expand my skills base. Due to a major client defaulting on payments the company went into liquidation in August 2001.

Aug 1998 - Jan 2001

Self Employed Web Developer.

My company provided strategic planning and implementation of a solid web presence for SMEs. Operating as a sole trader I managed the sales, marketing, promotion and administration tasks for the company as well as planning, design, development, implementation, administration and promotion of client's web sites. I also provided support services such as e-mail solutions, domain name management and infrastructure planning and implementation. Sadly I was forced to leave self-employment due to lack of sales.
