the story so far

Khaos Control Solutions was created by Mike Cockfield in 2000. He had a single vision: to deliver powerful, high quality, feature rich solutions that enabled businesses to unlock their full potential.

Over time the team expanded, as did the offices. The vision however, remained the same and is at the heart of our company’s values.

In 2016, Mike created a cloud-based ERP solution designed for helping SMEs manage their day-to-day processes – Khaos Control Cloud.

As we continue to grow, we look forward to helping businesses across the world unlock their full potential.

Ben Nolan // Technical Services Manager

Ben has been a loyal member of the Khaos Control family since 2001, starting out as Mike’s first Application Developer and helping to build the business in the early days. By late 2005 Ben had progressed to Support Team Manager, later joining the senior management team. Ben steered the Support team for nearly nine years, fostering many employee success stories who started their time at Khaos within Ben’s team. Recently Ben has moved into a more technically focused role as the Technical Services Manager. Being at the heart of Khaos Control Solutions in this way has given Ben an intimate knowledge of the system and he continues to contribute to all aspects of Khaos Control from behind the scenes. Ben is a film buff who enjoys spending his spare time with his family and tinkering with his Raspberry Pi and other new technologies.
