From Sparks to Open Water
It started at 16 — leaving college to train as a domestic electrician. But domestic work wasn't enough to keep the restless mind engaged, so the next step was marine electrical engineering. That decision opened the world up — literally. From sailing the South Pacific the wrong way (Tahiti to Panama), to working the Ichthys INPEX oil field in Australia, to building superyachts at Lürssen in Germany — one of the most prestigious shipbuilders on the planet.
Founding Vanadium Technologies
When personal circumstances brought the journey back to the UK, it was time to build something from the ground up. Together with co-founder Tom, Vanadium Technologies was born with a single mission: simplify the customer journey. The frustration of working with inefficient, wasteful companies and trades was the catalyst — there had to be a better way to run a business.
AI Changed Everything
Planning, automation, logistics, software, marketing — every area of the business was optimised. But it was the rapid advancement of AI that sparked the real breakthrough. The thinking was simple: "We know the frustrations, we know the processes, we know the compliance, and we're technical experts. What if we combined all of that with AI?"
The Results Speak for Themselves
Within the first two years, the team replaced repetitive admin roles with automation and AI — saving £80,000 per year immediately. Today, a team of just two people manages a £1.5 million company end-to-end: sales, operations, and compliance. That's only possible through the right tech stack and the right processes.
We've done it for our own company. Now we want to help you do the same — whether it's software subscriptions, AI consultancy, or API integrations. Your entire business, under one roof.
