Revenue: £55.9m (+13%)
Headcount: 236
New customer and project wins underpinned a 13% revenue upturn at the UK subsidiary of this London-based Cisco Gold partner in its year to 31 October 2022, with the directors “confident the increase in revenue will continue into FY23”. A shift in its sales mix towards hardware caused gross margins to fall from 24% to 19%, however. Globally, technology, media and telecoms-focused NSC turned over £164m in the same period.
Oxygen ice-breaker: CEO Yaseen Khan founded privately owned NSC in 1997 with the aim of “providing world-class customer service to a small number of global companies”.
