Nick Thompson, Key Account Manager
Nick is one of Storm's longest standing employees, originally joining as a Technical Support Engineer.
After the growth of the Dedicated Server side of Storm, Nick took on the role as Key Account Manager

Prior to Storm, Nick worked as a Support Engineer for Royal Bank of Scotland at their headquaters in Edinburgh.
A keen cyclist in his spare team, Nick is currently in training for this year's London - Brighton bike race.

Kader Benadel, Technical Support Engineer
Kader is the newest addition to the Storm team and is currently working alongside Simon and Ben as
a Technical Support Engineer.
Kader is not from an IT background. He worked for 10 years in various roles for the NHS which we see as a great strength, as he is able to bring a fresh perspective to Storm.
This combined with a natural technical aptitude and excellent customer service skills, makes Kader an invaluable asset to the team.
In his spare time, Kader loves nothing more than to socialise with friends. And we can already vouch that there is never a dull moment with Kader around!
