Total Computer Networks nabs Oram to drive growth plans

Ambitious reseller recruits experienced ACS and Misco alumnus

Channel veteran Claire Oram has joined ambitious VAR Total Computer Networks (TCN) to drive the firm's growth plans.

Oram arrives at Kettering-based TCN following a seven-year stint at Northamptonshire rival ACS. Prior to that she spent a decade at online resale heavyweight Misco.

She has been charged with expanding her new employer's vendor relationships, which currently include Lenovo, HP, Dell, Microsoft, CA and RSA. Oram will also build up the reseller's portfolio of technical accreditations.

TCN has been on a high-growth path in the past few years, growing from a £6.2m turnover organisation in 2008 to a £14.5m outfit in 2010. Sales last year were projected to breach the £18m barrier and more top-line expansion is planned.

Sales director Kieran O'Connor said: "We are delighted to welcome Claire, who brings a whole wealth of experience to the business. She will be instrumental in ensuring we continue with our rapid plan for growth, and we aim to be the leading partner for mid- to enterprise-size organisations."
