IT manager at KCOM Group highly commended at IT Industry Awards

At this year’s IT Industry Awards, Lindsay Rodgers, Design and Delivery Consultant at the KCOM Group was highly commended for her outstanding contribution to IT in the last 12 months.

The annual event, hosted this year by well-known comedian Jimmy Carr, was held at Battersea Park Events Arena in London, with over 1,300 guests, from businesses like BT, Virgin Media and Network Rail.

These awards focus on the contribution of individuals, projects, organisations and technologies that have excelled in the use, development and deployment of IT; Lindsay was shortlisted for the Best IT Manager award.

Chief Information Officer at the KCOM Group, Steve Humm, said: “Lindsay is a customer facing IT professional with a real affinity for our business. She has a talent for understanding what makes a great customer experience, something that is key to our Group’s reputation, and consistently applies that in the effective delivery of IT solutions.

“Across our business Lindsay has a reputation for making things happen and is a great communicator and facilitator. Within IT, she is someone who constantly challenges the way we work and injects best practice, including driving the adoption of service orientated-architecture (SOA) principles, and the creation of reusable services.

“Being shortlisted and recognised in this category is a demonstration of the respect that everyone around the business has for Lindsay and was richly deserved by someone who has had a tremendous year.”

Kcom, part of the KCOM Group, sponsored the Twitter wall at the event placing screens throughout the venue to show a live Twitter feed of everyone who was using the award hash tag (#UKITawards) and engaging online.
