What we do

Business-minded and commercially astute with a track record of P&L success, Mike has a reputation for delivering financial results, building profitable growth, executing transformational change and achieving outstanding service and programme delivery.

Having watched a privately owned IT supplier swallowed up by a giant, Moto vowed that Ideal would always put the customer first. Starting in 2009 from a rented desk, Mo rejoined Ideal in 2021 after a sabbatical.

Combining strong technical and analytical skills with a high degree of commercial acumen, Chris has a track record of leading high performing financial control and central support teams while providing strategic insights that help the business meet its goals and deliver customer outcomes.

Gary has responsibility for the operational performance and creative development of our professional and managed services portfolio. His experience means he brings a true customer perspective to his role, and ensures that expectations remain at the centre of our services and innovation.

Pat has overall responsibility for delivery, applying his proven expertise to ensure successful outcomes for clients. Highly regarded by clients and partners, Pat is core to maintaining Ideal's reputation.

Along with co-founder Moto, Claire created a company combining customer-focused account management with a highly skilled in-house engineering group, which continues to build long-term partnerships by listening to its clients and delivering on promises.
