Jason Carlton

Founder - Managing Director

Uptech Managed IT and Cyber-Security Services / Premier Voice Data Managed Telecoms Services

My passion is helping people to protect and build businesses through technology innovation and automation. I understand the challenges in starting out and running a business - having been a start-up over 30 years ago. It’s not easy starting out and can be daunting trying to make new connection, getting your name out there growing and taking on new staff. IT is not just about fixing your machine when it goes wrong! That should be what’s expected…..It’s about going beyond giving a great service and added value. Listening to people’s needs and pain points - demonstrating what tech can do to improve and streamline your business. Having the conversation in providing an IT strategy roadmap is always a good starting point. Having a trusted IT advisor by your side providing the right support solutions has been key in helping businesses be more productive and prudent. giving you peace of mind that you are protecting your business and giving your clients the reassurance that you take your IT security seriously. As we know cybercrime on the rise and protecting our client’s data and our reputations is a given! Me, I love for extreme sports like Snowboarding and Mountain biking, but injury does not allow as much time for this so now Jason is taking up Golf. I’m also a mental health champion and trained to work with mental health issues to runs alongside effective leadership growing the right culture within the workplace at Uptech and Premier.
