Our Values
Our History
Your IT is now an Award Winning IT Support Provider, employing 24 staff and supporting businesses across the UK.
From humble beginnings to over ยฃ2m turnover, scroll back through the story of Your IT Department.
A record year already for Your IT as it breaks the ยฃ2m turnover barrier, grows to 22 staff AND retains the Nachural Excellence in Customer Service Award. With much more to come............
What a year! In February the business picked up the Excellence in Customer Service Award at the Nachural Entrepreneurship awards, in May hit number 3 in the UK in the NextGen 101, added the Excellence in Customer Service Award at the East Midlands Chamber Awards in November and rounded out the year being named one of the 50 Best Managed IT Companies in the UK. Phew!!
Despite the global pandemic Your IT continues to grow and build the team adding further engineers as well as expanding the sales and marketing teams. The business received international recognition breaking the top 100 in the prestigious Channel Futures MSP 501, and being named in the top 5 in the UK. With lockdown over the company took the opportunity to hold it's first ever cyber security conference, and also sponsored the Love Business Expo further building the profile of the business.
The new decade saw a spruce up of the Your IT offices - just in time for a global pandemic which forced everyone to work from home! The Service Desk dealt with a 100% increase in ticket numbers in the lead up to lockdown as we played our part in keeping people safe AND working. As key workers in the IT & Telecoms sector we worked throughout the lockdown making sure our clients could keep operating.
To celebrate a fantastic first 10 years in business it was party time! Staff and their families joined with clients, suppliers and partners to celebrate. And as if the wasn't enough to celebrate the business also broke the ยฃ1m annual turnover figure for the first time.
With more new staff joining the office at the Enterprise Centre was starting to get a bit crowded. Early in 2016 the business purchased the premises at Farrington Way. Spread over 2 floors incorporating a large open plan office space, conference room, server room, PC build room and breakout area with Table Tennis table the company had space to grow and facilities to attract top talent.
A sign of things to come..... The busines is awarded the 'Best Small Business' Award at the East Midlands Chamber Business Awards in 2015.
With further engineers being added the business outgrows Mercury House, it's original home, and moves to the NBV Enterprise Centre.
Lee's Dad becomes the first employee of Your IT, joining to help out with Sales.
Lee & Simon formed Your IT back in 2009 with a simple vision; to provide a customer focused, high quality IT support service that went beyond just fixing computers.
Something to be proud of.....
A business thatโs recognised as one of the best.
We could list all our awards (and we will because we worked hard for them!) but what they tell you is that we’re a top class team where everyone is pulling in the same direction.
