Biography of Garreth Mawdsley- Vice President |

Garreth began his IT career a decade ago in South Africa in the physical network industry with intensive exposure to CAT5 UTP and Optic Fibre implementation.

Applying himself to large-scale implementations he was appointed the National IT Operations Manager for a company consisting of 1200 users and 30 branches (much to the dismay of his wife and social calendar!). His responsibilities included IT policies, hardware standards, planning and implementation of projects, assisting the board of directors with company rebranding and expansion, as well as ERP system management and IT auditing.
