Managing Director

Geoff joined the company, then called Lynx Computing, in March 2008, and worked alongside Ciaran (founder) over the years to build and develop the core business. Ciaran, in the preceding years, had left the world of corporate IT on a mission to bring enterprise level services to the SME sector. We were among the first to exploit emerging technologies, including the Windows Small Business Server and early smart phones, as well being one of the first MSPs to fully embrace Microsoft Office 365.

With a degree in Law and Business, and bringing experience in retail service delivery, Geoff helped to shape the company into the customer service focused support desk that it has since become, backed up with a rock-solid foundation of technological expertise. Investment in the best emerging remote management tools of the time helped drive both end-user experience and service delivery into a new era, and the company re-branded to Macnamara ICT in 2011.

Our goal has always been to deliver the very best possible experience of IT, with security front and center. Now, in the ‘post-COVID’ era, we’re delivering truly what IT companies have said all along, but which was never really the case. Work from anywhere, on any device, at any time. But now, it really works, and it really is secure.
