Jamie Lee
Director
Jamie co-founded PNC Telecom and was the Sales and Marketing Director.
The business started as The Personal Number Company selling 07000 numbers as
a reseller for Vodafone and later became PNC Telecom in order to reflect the
fact that it was selling a full range of telecoms products in both fixed
line and mobile for a number of networks.
It was processing circa 20 million
minutes of call traffic per month on the fixed line side and had 40 retail
mobile phone shops selling circa 10,000 mobiles a month. It employed over
500 staff and was turning over circa £60 million per annum.
He left the business in 2002 on good terms shortly after it became a
fully listed PLC. Jamie came out of retirement to help found 3G Video Ltd.
