Birmingham
One accountable team for Birmingham's financial and professional firms.
Birmingham is the UK's second city and the largest financial and professional-services centre outside London, its Colmore Row district packed with banks, advisers and accountancy and wealth-management firms. We have offices in Edinburgh and London and look after Birmingham firms as one accountable team, on the ground when it helps and remote the rest of the time.
It is where a device that reshaped the century was built. At the University of Birmingham in 1940, Randall and Boot created the cavity magnetron, the heart of modern radar and, later, every microwave oven. Tell us where your IT and security are now, and we will tell you what good looks like.

faq
IT support in Birmingham, answered plainly
We have offices in Edinburgh and London and look after firms right across Birmingham and the West Midlands. Day-to-day IT and security are run remotely by the same team that knows your environment, and we are on the ground in person when it helps.
Most day-to-day IT and security is run remotely. When something needs hands on a machine, we draw on a trusted network of vetted on-site engineers, our smart hands, who come to your office to set up devices, make changes and handle the physical work, alongside our team. You get someone on site when you need it, not just a phone line.
Wealth managers, asset managers and chartered accountancy practices, typically of five to fifty people, including the firms around the Colmore Row financial district. The common thread is that they are regulated, hold sensitive client data, and want IT and security run as one accountable job rather than split between suppliers.

Birmingham built the heart of radar
Radar, and the microwave
In 1940 John Randall and Harry Boot at the University of Birmingham invented the cavity magnetron, a compact source of microwaves that made airborne radar possible and helped turn the war. The same device now sits in every microwave oven.
