Supporting Poole businesses
Poole sits on one of the largest natural harbours in the world and, since 2019, has been part of Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council. The harbour drives a lot of the local economy. Sunseeker builds its luxury motor yachts in Poole, the town has a wider cluster of marine engineering and boat building firms around Hamworthy and the quayside, and the ferry port runs services across the Channel.
Poole is also the home of Lush, the cosmetics company, which started in the town and still has its head office and manufacturing here. Bournemouth University's Talbot Campus and the Arts University Bournemouth both sit within the Poole side of the conurbation, producing graduates in computing, media, design and animation. Tourism matters too, from Sandbanks and the beaches to the quay and the harbour islands.
Business areas include the Nuffield and Fleets Lane industrial estates, Holton Heath to the west, and offices in the town centre and Poole Quay. Typical support needs here include:
- Marine and engineering manufacturers needing CAD workstations kept running, file servers or SharePoint organised, and secure remote access for staff on boats and at shows.
- Seasonal hospitality and holiday letting businesses that rely on booking websites, payment links and guest Wi-Fi.
- Online retailers selling direct, who need WooCommerce or Shopify stores kept fast, patched and taking payments.
- Creative studios and freelancers coming out of the universities who want Macs, cloud storage and backups set up properly.
Seasonal staff turnover is a recurring theme: adding and removing Microsoft 365 users, resetting passwords and making sure ex-staff lose access quickly.

We take on seasonal staff every summer. Can you manage their accounts?
