More about Andrew Dale

I’ve been Chief Operating Officer at CloudTech24 for over eight years and have played a key role in its growth from a team of three people in 2018 to a business of 45 and growing today. During that time, we’ve achieved more than 25 times revenue growth while building a reputation for delivering high-quality managed IT and cyber security services.

My career began in sales and IT support before progressing into website hosting, technical pre-sales and leadership. That experience has given me a broad understanding of both the commercial and technical aspects of running a successful technology business.

As Chief Operating Officer for CloudTech24, I lead our operations, technical services and customer experience. I’ve helped shape our technology strategy, securing Microsoft Tier 1 Direct Partner status, Microsoft Modern Work Solutions Partner and Security designations, while maintaining our Google Workspace partnership and introducing new technologies that continue to strengthen our services.

I’m passionate about building high-performing teams, improving the way we work and using automation and AI to help businesses become more efficient, secure and resilient.

In my spare time, I enjoy playing 7-a-side football, keeping up with the latest tech and gadgets, and spending time with my two Maine Coon cats. I’m also a long-time Call of Duty fan, especially from the OG Verdansk and Rebirth Island days.
