L.E.A.D. IT Services

Powered by people. Backed by technology.

Based at Pride Park, L.E.A.D. IT Services is Derby’s trusted technology partner for business and education across the East Midlands. From fully managed IT support and cyber security to broadband, telephony and safeguarding solutions, we design and deliver secure, scalable IT that keeps organisations running smoothly and growing confidently.

For SMEs and the wider business community, we bring the same consultant-led approach – strategic IT consultancy, robust cyber protection and disaster recovery, and dependable day-to-day support that lets business leaders focus on growth rather than downtime.

For the education sector, we go far beyond fixing issues – we build Trust-wide standardisation, budget forecasting, governance alignment and safeguarding-first systems that give school and Trust leaders genuine peace of mind. We’re proud to be Microsoft-accredited, EdTech 50 award-winners and Cyber Essentials Plus certified.

What sets us apart is our social enterprise ethos. Technology, for us, is a means to create opportunity within the Derby and local community; we reinvest in people, nurture the next generation of IT talent through our apprenticeship programme, and actively support the communities we serve across the region.

Whether you’re a school, a Trust or a growing SME, L.E.A.D. IT Services is here to help you take control of your IT – allowing you to do what you do best.
