Meet the Ziptech Leadership Team

Jim Simpson

Jim Simpson

Founder and CEO

Jim founded Ziptech at a time when his frustration with IT Support companies was at its height. Working as a turnaround CEO, he realised that the performance of each of these companies who sought his advice could be remarkably improved with better IT. Jim decided to set up a straight-talking, skilled and well organised IT service business that could help company directors of small to mid-sized enterprises increase productivity, control costs and gain competitive advantage.
