a different way of thinking

Management

CEO – JP Clemence

JP trained in business management before entering the IT profession. His business management expertise has enabled him to view IT issues in business terms – he understands the competing needs between the “business” and the “techs”. JP has worked with most of the international merchant banks as well as major commercial and government organisations.

In 1989 JP founded JPM Networks, one of the three companies that now make up Sententia. It is a testament to JP’s business acumen that JPM Network’s customers are still with Sententia today.

CTO – James McLennan

James and his team have a broad range of experience in managing enterprise data centres, including service delivery, availability and best practice restoration techniques. He is well versed in delivering highly available solutions, whether simple documented in-house ‘belts & braces’ recovery procedures or mission critical follow the sun geographically replicated clusters.

James delivers on the “can do” promise where other providers have failed. His long term military and security background combined with a determination to succeed despite the environment or technology constraints are key ingredients to bringing projects in on time, on budget and, more importantly, in line with the  long term strategic needs of the business.

COO – Neil Ferreira

Neil manages the operations of Sententia, including sales, finance and administration with his team.  Neil started his career in accounting and finance with one of the top 3 Japanese investment banks before branching out into other industries including manufacturing, shipping, construction and travel.

Bringing a pragmatic and flexible approach to management, Neil ensures Sententia’s clients receive information and customised solutions to finance their IT needs as efficiently and expeditiously  as possible.

Managing Consultant – Paul Robinson

Paul is responsible for managing Sententia’s team of highly-trained and highly-motivated technical consultants. Paul is also responsible for ensuring our technical team is kept abreast of emerging technologies in key growth areas so that consultants can readily recommend infrastructure in a knowledgeable and insightful manner. As a member of Sententia’s technical consultant team, Paul regularly engages with customers and vendors to understand what they require from a professional services organisation.

Paul is a highly qualified IT expert who has worked in several key industries where emerging technologies are readily accepted and developed. He has experience with ISPs, telcos and  defense and software development companies.
