Welcome to another episode of “Off Script,” where we peel back the layers to reveal the stories behind the people powering Claims Consortium Group (CCG) and Synergy Cloud. In this episode, Jeremy Hyams sits down with John Chugg, affectionately known as ‘Chuggy,’ the Service Delivery Team Leader for our IT department at CCG.

John Chugg plays a crucial role in our IT department, coordinating with other team leaders and managers across the business, and overseeing the IT helpdesk. Known for his distinctive look—standing 6 feet tall with a mohawk and riding a Harley—Chuggy ensures that the IT team is seen as more than just a faceless entity.

Jeremy Hyams and our CEO, Matt B, are frequent customers of the IT helpdesk, often requiring assistance with home tech conumdrums. But which of them goes through more mobile phones?

Chuggy’s journey to IT leadership is anything but typical. He left school and had his first job as a fishmonger, then became a fully qualified construction site manager. His diverse background includes service in the Royal Air Force, after which became the manager of a children’s care home. This role was as rewarding as it was challenging, and Chuggy maintains connections with many of the children, who are now grown with their own families.
