Rob has had a varied career covering hardware, software and services from a management, sales and technical perspective.

He has experience of working for all sizes of business - from IBM, Sequent Computer Systems and Onyx Software to Firebrand Training, which he co-founded as a start-up in 2001. He is an Angel investor, a non-exec director and coach. His specialist experience includes corporate sales, telesales, marketing, hardware, software, professional services and training.

He has day-to-day responsibility for Firebrand’s digital marketing, sales and corporate strategy.

In his spare time, Rob is a keen cyclist. His most recent challenge was to cycle up Mont Ventoux (Club-des-Cingles) in the Alps no less than three times!

Firebrand is a training company with a unique approach. Since 2001, they have enabled over 70,000 students to develop valuable digital skills through their accelerated training programmes, and for the last eight years have been recognised amongst the Top 20 IT Training Companies in the World.

Firebrand’s courses enable professional development and certification on behalf of some of the biggest names in the industry – Microsoft, Cisco and (ISC)2 among them – and are designed to keep pace with the continually changing landscape of the digital marketplace.
