About Nimbus Blue

We're a small team of people who love to give awesome customer service.

I mean, sure we like the geeky stuff too, but our values are what we live and breathe each day, which is why we’re proud to be award winners in the Customer First category of the Northern Star Business Awards.

Our history

Nimbus Blue sprang to life in 2010 when our founder, David Tawse, decided it was time to create an IT business in Aberdeen that focussed on customer service first. This came from his background of working in retail and leisure, but combining his love of all things tech. Now, Nimbus Blue serves companies far beyond its Aberdeen roots.
