This strategic move follows Viatel’s acquisition of MJ Flood Technology, a deal that has received all necessary regulatory approvals and is set to bring unparalleled capability and excellence to the Irish technology landscape.
James Finglas, formerly the Managing Director of MJ Flood Technology, brings over 26 years of experience in transforming the company into a multimillion-euro business renowned for its excellence in cybersecurity, cloud migration, Microsoft telephony, and modern work solutions.
Paul Rellis, CEO of Viatel Technology Group, shared his enthusiasm about the news; “I am delighted to announce the appointment of James Finglas as General Manager of our digital services division. We have a very clear intention to establish Viatel Technology Group as the leader in cybersecurity, cloud, and Microsoft solutions in Ireland and beyond. I have known James for many years. I have every confidence he is the right person to lead our exceptional team and harness our combined capabilities to realise that future.”
James Finglas, newly appointed General Manager, said, “I am excited to take on this pivotal role with Viatel Technology Group.
