Toby Bryans’s Summary

A strong technologist, Toby fell into financial IT from University by chance when he started working for a trading software ISV as a systems administrator. Since then he has gained experience with both the technicalities of financial IT and the implications of running fault tolerant and redundant systems for trading environments which ideally need 100% uptime. Joining Schneider in 2004 he built and now runs a team which manages exchange connectivity and trading systems across continents for many hundreds of local and remote traders.

Since 1997 he has also been a director of Cygnet Computer Solutions where he has worked with the Parliamentary Maritime Group, the Parliamentary IT Committee, the BCS Young Professionals Group (including two years on the YPG commitee) and the Real Time Club one of the highlights of which was helping with their presentation at the Royal Society which discussed the future of technological entrepreneurship in the UK.

He works occasionally for a charity called Journey of a Lifetime (JoLt) where he helps lay out and design their bi-yearly magazine.
