Construct IoT

Due to my previous employer going into Administration on 19^th December 2019 and all employees being made redundant, I did not want to be in the position of jumping into the wrong career move, so I decided to start freelancing to allow time and flexibility whilst career searching.

Over the years, I have built an excellent reputation with business owners and senior executives, as well as contacts through networking. The freelancing extended longer than I anticipated due to the COVID-19 pandemic but also allowed me flexibility to care and home school for our children.

Testimonials

Craig worked at Bardsleys as our IT Manager for 3 years with the sole responsibility of managing head office IT infrastructure, providing IT services to multiple temporary construction sites across the North West. In that time, he streamlined and documented all IT processes, allowing time to concentrate on strategic development. Craig took time to understand the issue/business requirements and would research options available, writing a comprehensive paper for the Board to approve the project, being mindful of cost but not reducing quality or expected life of asset. Craig provided a 3 year IT road map for the business ensuring that resources were in place to deal with major projects showing exceptional organisational and planning skills. A recent project Craig implemented was paper cut technology on all the printers, this reduced printing overhead costs by 40% and each year the mobile phone expenditure would decrease. I would highly recommend Craig to manage a business’s IT requirements.

Emma Allsopp (Line Manager)

Financial Director @ Bardsley Construction

Craig is meticulous in all his undertakings and is always willing to assist colleagues and projects within the business. His ability and knowledge within the I.T industry are immense and Craig is always willing to impart this knowledge to those around him in a succinct and clear way. Craig has an ability and work ethic that will benefit any employer, team, and customer alike.

Chris Brown (Colleague)

Installation Director @ Securus Group

Craig’s “I CAN DO” attitude, has taken his career to the next level over the years I have known him. He was always keen to explore new ideas and develop his knowledge of the business. This fire in his belly approach led towards the development of his technical skillset within the security industry as well. As the Procurement Director, I regularly worked with Craig and received his detailed feedback from reviewing innovations from the IFSEC events he attended, to ensure the business kept ahead of our competitors. Craig is, without a doubt, an IT professional at heart and very knowledgeable in the dark arts of “IT” in both soft and hardware and he would be a valuable asset to any organisation. His talent in procurement, sourcing the best possible deals, has blossomed over the years. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Stephen Bottomley (Business Owner)

Procurement Director / Owner @ Swift Fire & Security

Craig was one of my IT apprentices, whom I employed as a Network Support Administrator at Swift Fire & Security, whilst he was studying his NVQ in Information Technology. Craig was a very self-motivated individual and very eager to learn. It was not long before he had outgrown his position and, unfortunately, departed the business. However, a year later, a vacancy for IT Manager became available and I did not hesitate to get in touch with him. His passion for technology and attention to detail helped him influence IT within the business to great benefit. Craig is a very talented and versatile IT professional and continually goes over and above to succeed. I would not hesitate to re-employ him or recommend him.

Andy Carter (Line Manager)

IT Director @ Swift Fire & Security

I have known Craig from his earlier years at Swift Fire & Security but more recently developed a close business relationship with him whilst at Bardsley Construction. His attention to detail and organisation skills are outstanding. It wasn't long before Craig had completely documented, restructured the IT Services at Bardsley and started moving forward with the development of the businesses IT strategy. BCN Group worked closely with Craig on this journey where he implemented new infrastructure hardware, Sophos Intercept X, Office 365, Exchange Online, Microsoft Teams and most recently completed the strategy to phase out Windows 7 across the Bardsley IT estate before the end-of-life deadline. Craig is very knowledgeable in both business operations and IT, I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Simon Kelf (Business Associate)

Co-founder & CEO @ BCN Group

I worked with Craig for a number of years during which time Craig provided the Group with exceptional support service that went above and beyond his remit. Despite operational challenges, Craig was able to juggle the needs of the business with the demands of the user groups. He has an exceptional and rare ability to juggle long term project delivery whilst overcoming day to day challenges to ensure both organisational development and maintained service at the highest level. I would not hesitate to recommend or employ Craig whenever I had the chance to do so.

Mark Freeman (Colleague)

Regional Managing Director @ Securus Group

Highly recommended IT Professional. I worked with Craig at Bardsley Construction where I was the SHEQ Director and Craig was head of IT systems. Craig was exemplary in his work, highly skilled, knowledgeable and was a key ally in moving Bardsley IMS Systems from paper-based to web and mobile technology thus bringing the company systems to the forefront of the industry. I would highly recommend him to any organisation seeking a highly talented ‘out of the box’ thinking and approach and would certainly employ him myself if I was in a position to do so.

Neil Taylor (Colleague)

SHEQ Director @ Bardsley Construction

Craig is a talented and innovative IT professional with experience in a wide range of different skills. He has the ability to communicate ideas and concepts effectively to people with differing levels of technical knowledge, both individually and as a group. During my previous experiences working with Craig, I have always found him to be professional and efficient while maintaining a friendly, approachable attitude to colleagues and third parties. I have no hesitation in recommending Craig in whatever career he decides to pursue as I am sure he will be more than capable of fulfilling and exceeding expectations.

David Roberts (Line Manager)

Technical Manager @ Nord Anglia Education

Craig is an excellent IT professional and manager who I worked within my time at Bardsley. Extremely helpful, knowledgeable and willing to go the extra mile to find the best solution and advice for all the Surveying departments IT requirements. Managed his department to budget whilst giving the best service to all. I never heard any negatives, only positives, from all the other managers in the business. I would thoroughly recommend without hesitation.

John Shaw (Colleague)

Managing Surveyor @ Bardsley Construction

I have worked with Craig at several Companies over many years. In all the time I have known him he always strives to find the best and most practical solution to issues, taking into account the commercial elements for all departments concerned. Craig takes time and effort to integrate into a business to fully understand all aspects and builds relationships easily at all levels. I have worked with Craig to implement new systems in a working environment, transferred acquired businesses onto the same platforms and managing the IT infrastructures & software packages, nothing was ever too difficult for him. Craig is an excellent addition to any team.

Anne Carter (Colleague)

Commercial Director @ Securus Group

Craig is a highly skilled, tenacious and dedicated individual that will perform all tasks at the highest level. A great team player equally to management/Directors and to the general workforce, Craig can succeed in a role within a large corporate business or that of a smaller business that wants to grow through improvements to IT infrastructure and support. My experience working with Craig in a very busy fast growing service organisation for a few years was extremely positive, I’d highly recommend Craig to any business, they’d definitely benefit from his expertise and he is very amiable and upbeat which makes the more frustrating IT problems we all experience less of a pain to resolve!

Steve Dryden (Colleague)

Client Service Director @ Securus Group

I worked with Craig at Bardsley Construction Ltd for about 3 years. We worked closely with him on the digitalisation of the company systems. He is a very approachable, patient, knowledgeable IT Manager with extensive experience in both hardware and software systems. It was a pleasure working with Craig and I would not hesitate in working with him again and highly recommending him.

Mark Baker (Colleague)

SHEQ Advisor @ Bardsley Construction

Craig is one of a rare breed, he’s a ‘can do’ I.T. man! I interacted with Craig from 2005 until about 2013. In that time, from my perspective as a manufacturer selling video transmission systems (as they were then called) to a multitude of CCTV installation and remote monitoring companies, it was always a pleasure to take a call from this guy because you knew he would be positive and work with you to fix the problem. Instead of dumping the problem on some unsuspecting manufacturer, he’d work with the 3rd party (in this case me) to resolve whatever particular I.T. issue it was. He’s a really nice guy and as someone else already said, he’s amiable and positive, which is largely what’s needed to overcome I.T issues.

Martin Finder (Business Associate)

Director of UK Office @ HeiTel/Xtralis

It was a pleasure to work with Craig, when he worked as IT Director at Securus. Craig is clearly an engineer with a vast amount of experience and technical knowledge and this shines through in the work he does. He wasn't afraid of making changes within the business, but was also thorough in his questioning and analysis. We've kept in touch since his time at Securus and I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Hannah Sang (Business Associate)

Business Development Manager @ Datcom

I have had the opportunity to work with Craig for a couple of years and in that time I saw what separates him from other IT professionals. He is extremely knowledgeable and highly skilled. Able to add value and manage IT requirements for business effectively. I was able to learn and develop a lot thanks to him. Craig has experience in all aspects of IT and is able to manage and improve existing systems significantly. His work ethic is also something to admire and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

Foyaz Ali (Employee)

IT Support Administrator @ Bardsley Construction

Craig is a very passionate and technically minded line manager who has a plethora of knowledge that doesn’t just stop at IT level, but above and beyond to all known technologies to mankind. An exceptional leader who engages himself and fully commits to anything that seems impossible to fix by others, continues until an issue is fully operational leaving no stone unturned. I have had the privilege to be managed by Craig, and would not hesitate to be managed by Craig again. A true great manager who has a very keen approach to professional development to the team he manages

Vijay Mistry (Employee)

IT System Administrator @ Bardsley Construction

I worked for Craig at Swift Fire and Security. Craig's an extremely technical, hands-on manager with excellent man-management skills along with a great strategic mind for IT. I learnt a lot from Craig and would happily work for him again in the future.

Simon Chapman (Employee)

Senior IT Technician @ Swift Fire & Security

I worked under Craig at Securus Group for just over 2 years and honestly could not have worked for a better manager. Craig would always make himself available to assist me in my development and show me new processes and technologies he was implementing. I was always impressed by Craig's ability to take on multiple heavy tasks and balance them effortlessly whilst acting as my sole escalation point. I had a minimal experience when I started but benefitted from Craig's depth of knowledge massively. I would not hesitate to recommend Craig to any employer and would not hesitate to work with him again.
