The Spotlight

As the business founder, Amanda has been an IT professional for over 25 years, ensuring businesses are up to date with the latest technological advancements.

Amanda loves to chat and takes the time to understand her client’s frustrations when it comes to their technology. Her skill for identifying potential IT challenges means the small businesses that she supports have an IT strategy that is ready to upscale and stay ahead of the technology curve.

More recently Amanda has specialised in GDPR governance, ensuring clients’ systems meet the increased requirements to secure personal data.

When not at work, Amanda can be found in her art shed with her Cockapoo Max.

The Torch

Martin is always there when you need him. As one of the first members of the Illuminate team, Martin has supported clients for over ten years and regularly visits their offices to fully understand the challenges they face.

His ‘can do’ attitude gives his clients the peace of mind that he’s there to get the job done when they need him. Like a trusted torch, he shines his knowledge in the right place at the right time, it’s as simple as that!

Not quite Ronaldo, when not at work Martin plays football… give it time!

The Lighthouse

Kerr is a safe harbour for our clients and often the first port of call on our dedicated IT Helpline. His calm and patient approach ensures that clients get the support they need in an efficient and reliable way.

To enhance his skills, Kerr is a qualified CyberEssentials practitioner, meaning that he is a step ahead of the cybercrime menaces providing you with a secure solution when it matters most.

Out of the office Kerr is a supernova of talent. Not only lead singer in a local band, he also teaches children to play the guitar.

The Reading Light

As our office manager, Teznur is the light we rely on daily. She keeps us fuelled with caffeine and biscuits and ensures our clients invoices and queries are dealt with in a timely manner.

Teznur’s cheeriness never dulls. She paints and sings in the local choir and enjoys reading to her pet parrot Laurence.

The Laser

Brian will highlight weak points in business processes and help streamline them using the latest systems. His enthusiasm for all things tech is infectious when he trains our clients as they work together to find out new and exciting ways of working.

His breadth of experience in managing projects of all sizes means that whatever change our clients are going through, Brian can deliver on time and on budget.

On a Monday, Brian exhausts the rest of the team with tales of his wild swimming and trail running, occasionally carrying a 30kg dog.

The Sunlight

Bringing the ‘aw’ factor to everyone he meets, Max is everyone’s best friend. His main job is protecting us from delivery men with his wagging tail.
He never wearies of greeting all our clients and suppliers and walking with the team member in any weather.

Away from the office, he likes to wrestle and go on walks with his nemesis Ruby the cat.
