Rob Wickens has joined British cloud hosting and data center operator
Teledata. Established in 2005 and with headquarters in Manchester in the northwest of England, Teledata operates an ISO27001-compliant, NSI ‘Gold’ approved facility with a BS5979 certified control room and alarm receiving center. The company typically caters to business across the United Kingdom and offers a range of services including colocation, cloud hosting, and “workplace recovery and data center services”. It takes pride in offering solutions that protect its customers’ applications, data and online presence "from the damaging effects of downtime”. Mr. Wickens joins the company as an Infrastructure Engineer.
Teledata’s onboarding of Mr. Wickens comes on the heels of the company launching a private cloud platform and a private virtual desktop cloud solution in early 2020. It also comes against a backdrop of the company experiencing 20% growth last year, and alongside a “58% increase in its cloud customer base” during the same period. He previously worked with Stagecoach where he spent 10 years in the company’s technical support, networking, and telecoms teams. His primary roles at Teledata will include working with the company’s cloud service environments.
“As we continue to grow our cloud product set, it is necessary to expand our cloud team to ensure that we can continue, not only to provide our customers with the level of support and service that they expect – and beyond, but also that we have the resources to continue to innovate and develop our cloud infrastructures and products,” explained Teledata’s Director, Matt Edgley. He added, “We welcome Rob to the team, and are looking forward to seeing his career develop at Teledata.”
