Howard Kennedy has doubled in size over the past four years. Between them, Michael Harris and Hamish Mitchell, IT partner and IT director respectively at Howard Kennedy, have transformed the IT function during this time frame, shoring up the infrastructure and ensuring tight integration between all of the firm’s key software applications. Now, with a strong and solid technology platform, they are beginning to think outside the box.
“The things we have done with IT so far are not department-specific,” says Mitchell, a former networks consultant from New Zealand and the firm’s IT director for the past four years. “My main focus and drive has been to get an infrastructure in place that is as simple and as efficient as possible.”
