Chris Albutt
Managing Director & Co-Founder
I'm an ideas guy, creative at the core but technically trained since birth. Give me a tool and I'll build you an arc, give me a computer and I'll take over the world ... well maybe that’s a bit too grand, but I'm sure you get the point. Graduating from Staffordshire Uni with a 1:1 in Interactive Multimedia left a lot of avenues open but I've always wanted my own company.
I love technology and gadgetry and the way we use it in our daily lives and although TXD was conceived from a single software product its grown into a highly trained, multi-skilled organisation to be proud of. My role is leading the team and keeping up with the tech I love so much, striving to turn ideas into reality using technology solutions in clever ways. That’s where Dave and the team come in.

David Gallimore
Technical/Operations Director & Co-Founder
My role for TXD is to drive our technology forward while ensuring our customers continue to receive the very best in service and support. It's quite a broad task and covers everything from network monitoring and platform change, through to data management and new feature development, as well as supporting other areas of the business like sales and account management. My main areas of technical expertise are application development, data management and email marketing.
If you're thinking of joining our merry band of customers, then I'm sure you'll be working with me at some point!

Thomas Harley
Key Account Manager
Due to the ever evolving nature of the company everyday at TXD for me is different. My main role consists of ensuring the smooth running of all internet and graphic weighted projects. I account manage and liase with clients but I'm also always keen to get my sleeves rolled up and have frequently been spotted at 4am providing onsite AV support at large events.
I was spotted by TXD at Staffordshire University graduate exhibition. After studying the same degree as Chris (Interactive Multimedia) I fitted the vacancy perfectly and after an enjoyable, ridiculously speedy 4 1/2 years, here I am now.

Stuart Lees
Web Developer/Accessibility Specialist
Before joining TXD back in the long hot summer of 2007, I studied BA(Hons) Interactive Multimedia at Staffordshire University. I've always possessed a keen interest in all aspects of computing from programming to design and animation to modern standards. Coming from a multimedia background I have a fairly comprehensive grasp of various elements of web design and development and due to the dynamic and versatile nature of TXD limited I am able to put these abilities into practise on a daily basis.
My job consists of graphic design, xHTML coding / CSS, JavaScript integration, Coldfusion programming, Flash / application Development, Eflyer Design and brew making.

Chris Owen
Web Designer / Developer
Having come straight out of Staffordshire University with a degree in Interactive Multimedia I feel incredibly lucky to not only be working - but to be working with such a motivated, like-minded and forward thinking team.
From a young age I've had a passion for computers and technology, but it was the internet and it's seemingly infinite potential that really captured my imagination – 15 years later I'm exactly where I wanted to be, even if I didn't know it then!
I've always enjoyed having a wide range of skills and have varying knowledge of; ColdFusion, PHP, XHMTL, CSS3, JavaScript, Flash and Photoshop. I also have an unhealthy obsession with efficiency – I'm always looking for ways to make things quicker/easier/simpler, either for me or for the users of my sites/apps... even if making something more efficient means more time spent developing!

Mike Adams
Web Developer / Technical Support
After being with TXD for just under a month I had already been given the nickname magic, hopefully this doesn’t imply some kind of resemblance to Paul Daniels. My past experience spans four years which started with a junior programming position creating bespoke systems. In my previous position I was solely responsible for the management of a 20 user network as well as creating a number of websites that gave the firm a stronger online presence and brought some e-commerce ideas to fruition. Over the years I have mainly used Microsoft technology with most focus on programming in .NET and MSSQL server. I am looking forward to expanding my experience to include ColdFusion and MYSQL as I continue my career with TXD.

Rob Albutt
Accounts
As 'the old man' of the team, I started my working life in an accounts office, involved in auditing and the preparation of accounts. I then moved over to industry, maintaining accounts books (by hand) and credit control. I moved on to teaching in primary schools and retired after 25 years.
Having helped in the growth of TXD Limited from its inception I now maintain the accounts records of the company (using things called computers) and keep the tax man happy. |
