A one-person consultancy helping small and medium businesses move to Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, get their email and storage in order, and lock the doors on the way in. I also pull cable, mount cameras, and configure the switch in your comms cupboard — whatever the job actually needs.
A Gmail or Hotmail address on business cards. No backup, no shared inbox, no protection against the obvious phishing attempt.
The quote is on Sarah's machine. The invoice template is on the old PC in the back. Nobody has the latest version of anything.
Dead spots in half the building, the password's been the same since 2019, and the printer drops off every Tuesday.
Old staff still in the email group. Shared logins on sticky notes. A subscription nobody can remember signing up for.
One ransomware email, one stolen laptop, one fired employee with the master password. No plan for any of it.
For founders launching, sole traders going legit, and small teams who've been winging it on personal accounts. One project. One handover. Optional ongoing support — or a one-off training session if you'd rather take it from there yourself.
Picked, purchased, and pointed at the right places.
Whichever fits — licence sizing, sign-in, users, the lot.
name@yourcompany.co.uk, with proper SPF, DKIM and DMARC.
OneDrive & SharePoint or Google Drive — folders that make sense.
Advanced setup available — phishing filters, MFA, conditional access.
Website, booking system, small line-of-business app — hosted and pointed correctly.
If you don't want a retainer, I'll show your team how to actually use it.
Every login, licence, and renewal date — yours to keep.
The bundle covers most new businesses. For everyone else — established teams who need a tidy-up, an upgrade, or a proper second pair of hands — these are the things I'm regularly called in for.
Tenant setup, licensing review, mailbox migration, Teams & SharePoint architecture.
Domain verification, group structure, drive permissions, mail routing.
Win32 app deployment, policy, detection scripts, firewall rules at scale.
SPF, DKIM, DMARC, anti-phishing policies, MFA, conditional access rules.
Moving from one provider to another without losing email, files, or your mind.
Domains, DNS, hosting for the website and any small apps the business runs on.
Cat6 runs, patch panels, tidy comms cupboards. Labelled and documented.
Surveying, AP placement, controller setup. No more dead spots in the back office.
Configuration, VLANs, guest networks kept properly separated from the business one.
IP camera systems, remote viewing, GDPR-conscious placement and signage.
A walk-through, a written report, and a prioritised list of what to fix and when.
Monthly retainer if you want a person to call. No retainer if you'd rather not — your choice.
No discovery workshops, no decks, no Gantt chart. We have a conversation, I look at what you've got, I tell you what I'd do and what it'll cost.
Then I do it. You get a single point of contact — me — for the whole project. When it's done, you get a handover document so the next person (or future you) isn't starting from scratch.
30 minutes on the phone or in person. What you've got, what's breaking, what you're trying to do this year.
Written. Plain English. Fixed price where I can, day rate where I can't, with a clear scope either way.
Done in agreed steps, with check-ins at the points that matter. No surprises on the invoice.
Working system, written documentation, optional training session. Retainer if you want one.
I'm a solo IT consultant. I spent years inside larger organisations managing fleets of Windows machines, hardening Microsoft 365 tenants, and writing the kind of policies and scripts that keep things quietly running. Secure-Cloud is what happens when you take that experience and turn it toward the businesses that need it most — the ones where IT is one of fifty things the founder is trying to handle.
I'm not a call centre. You get me on the phone, me on the email, me on the day of the install. The trade-off is honest: I take on the clients I can do a proper job for, and I tell you up front if a project's outside what I can deliver on my own.
If you'd rather work with one person who picks up the phone, who'll be at your office in jeans not a branded polo, and who'll write down what they did so you're not locked in — that's me.
No. The bundle is a one-off project. Ongoing support is monthly and either party can give a month's notice. If you only want a one-off training session at the end of the project instead of a retainer, that's a normal, expected choice — not a downgrade.
Whichever fits your team. Microsoft 365 tends to win when there's serious Office document work, Teams calls, and Windows devices to manage. Google Workspace tends to win when the team's small, web-native, and collaborates heavily in shared documents. I'll give you a straight recommendation based on how you actually work.
Yes — that's a big part of what I do. An audit, a written report, and a fixed-scope remediation project to bring things up to scratch. No need to start over.
Actually do it. I'll be on a ladder with a fish tape. For larger jobs I'll bring in a second pair of hands, but you'll know about that up front and it doesn't change who you deal with.
It depends on team size, which platform you choose, and whether you need the advanced security setup. I quote per business so you only pay for what you actually need. Most starter bundles land in a range I'll discuss on the first call — no surprises.
Yes — public liability and professional indemnity. Documentation available on request before any on-site work.
Tell me roughly what you're trying to do. I'll come back with a sensible first step — usually a half-hour call, no charge, no obligation.
