IT & Communications Manager

 

I have recently been employed by a Marine Electronics/ Engineering and satellite telecommunications company, as the IT and Communications manager, working on all aspects of the company IT systems and infrastructure.

My main responsibilities are to ensure the smooth running of the 24hr remote access system to sea going vessels, manage the service help desk and arrange service engineer visits to repair all aspects of ships communications/ guidance and security systems.

Design and Implement Network/ Security systems including specifying hardware/ software integration.

I am responsible for eight field service engineers and two internal IT support staff.

Working as part of the sales support team I have worked on tenders for BP, Shell, Northern Marine Management, Lomar Shipping and Zodiac Maritime, which included designing onboard network solutions for Ships business, full design and implementation LAN and WAN access via On board Satellite communication systems. Configure routers both ship side and shore side to allow seamless communications, with sales values of over £4 million pounds.

I have also designed and specified an transfer system to use on low speed satellite communication terminals which is currently being used by over 400 ships. Working closely with the software programmers I have designed and implemented a ships crew and tele system and a least cost routing program which allows the vessel to cut communications cost and maximise throughput of data.
