Russ’s Bio
Having started my career as an accountant over 30 years ago, I have been involved in IT and Telecoms since 1994. Over that time, a large part of my career has focused on the integration of service-rich technology businesses to deliver joined-up solutions for our customers. I’ve been involved in over 20 acquisitions, ensuring the successful onboarding of organisations to build a strong employee culture that’s the bedrock of world-class customer service.
I joined FluidOne in 2018 and led an MBO that acquired the business in February 2019 with a vision to build the best quality provider of Connected Cloud Solutions. I am very proud of what we have achieved to date, trebling in size in the first 5 years, earning a market-leading Net Promoter Score (NPS) of 88 from our customers, and being voted by our staff in the top 50 technology companies to work for in the UK. Highlander is a great fit within the group, delivering excellent service to customers, with a loyal and skilled team built on a foundation of strong values.
I am married with 4 children, so my family keeps me fairly occupied outside of work! I also enjoy England rugby and like to keep fit with weightlifting, running and karate (I’m a black belt in the Seiki-Juku style).
