After working for many years in the Chemical Engineering industry in South Africa and the Far East, Mark completely changed direction a little over 20 years ago to try his hand at programming and running a computer training company. Whilst doing this he secured a contract with Intervid, the then owners of Cathexis, to facilitate their global training. After a short period, Mark took on the full-time position of International Training Manager for Intervid. Once Cathexis divested from Intervid, he moved with Cathexis retaining the responsibility for training but also taking on the role of sales into the EU. Initially the EU region was run from Cathexis head office in Durban, South Africa, but in 2007 Mark made the permanent move to the UK with his family to set up the Cathexis EU office. As the Managing Director he now overseas an excellent team and has recently moved to new offices in Nottingham. Mark has designed and supplied complex CCTV solutions to a variety of blue-chip end users including law enforcement agencies, some of the largest retailers in Europe, numerous hospitals, distributions centres, commercial facilities, sports facilities and educational institutes.
