Who We Work With in Chester
Our Chester clients are typically businesses with 5 to 100 staff that need enterprise-grade IT without the cost of an in-house team. Chester has an unusually diverse economy for a city of its size, and we support organisations across financial and professional services firms at Chester Business Park, where long-standing occupiers include Bank of America, M&S Bank and GB Group; pharmaceutical and life sciences businesses including Bristol-Myers Squibb and supply chain partners; legal and accountancy practices across the city centre; hospitality, hotels, leisure and tourism businesses serving visitors to the Rows, Chester Racecourse and the Roman walls; healthcare providers linked to the Countess of Chester Hospital; higher education and research linked to the University of Chester; and retail and consumer businesses around Cheshire Oaks and the wider Chester West area.
Our IT support for Chester businesses is especially suited to three common situations: growing firms that need robust infrastructure before hiring a dedicated IT manager; organisations reviewing whether their current IT setup still fits as they scale across Chester, Ellesmere Port or the wider Cheshire West area; and businesses where critical technical knowledge sits with one individual, creating a continuity risk. We also provide cloud services and telecoms and connectivity solutions to Chester businesses and firms across Cheshire and the wider North West.
