Member Spotlight: Chris Holcombe, Client Relationship Manager, Linten Technologies

2nd July 2025, 7:20 pm

When did you join Linten Technologies and what do you do?
I joined Linten Technologies in October 2024. As Client Relationship Manager, I use my background in customer service and relationship management to support our clients and help the business take a more proactive approach to IT support.

Tell us a bit about your career background.
I’ve worked in customer service and relationship management for many years across different sectors. Some of my proudest achievements include becoming the youngest ever Night Manager at a Hilton Hotel, turning around a loss-making KFC store into one generating over £250k profit per quarter, and winning major contracts by building strong relationships with clients who were previously loyal to other providers.

How would you describe your personality in three words?
Unflappable, personable, determined.

What’s the best thing about being part of Pro-Manchester?
I’ve only just joined, but I’m looking forward to meeting new people, learning more about the network, and seeing how we can support each other’s businesses.

What are your priorities for 2025?
Personally, I’m looking forward to spending more time with family and friends now that my children are grown up.

Professionally, I want to continue delivering excellent service to our clients, develop and strengthen my professional network, and grow our client base by promoting the great work we do at Linten.

What do you think are the most important things happening in Manchester right now?
Manchester is booming. The city is growing rapidly and adapting to that growth. Just look at the transformation in the city centre and Salford’s MediaCity – it’s an exciting time to be here.

What’s your favourite meeting spot in Manchester?
I like places where you can mix business with a bit of fun – somewhere like Flight Club, Electric Shuffle, King Pins, or Freight Island. They offer something a bit different and make meetings more memorable.

Are there any particular types of businesses you’d like to connect with?
We’re always happy to speak with any business looking to simplify their IT. Right now, we’re especially keen to connect with legal and financial firms. We’ve developed tailored IT support packages for these sectors that help ensure compliance with their specific regulatory requirements.
