After twenty years at RMT Technology and two years as Technical Director, Mike Hayes has been promoted to become its Managing Director. Hayes’ role will include implementing bespoke suites of managed service packages, while the business has also added two senior IT professionals to the team to bolster the expertise available to new and existing clients.
