1. You must have history and demonstrable competence delivering outstanding support and advice within another MSP, MSSP, integrator or other service providing IT business
2. You must be able to demonstrate success managing the relationship with small to mid scale clients across a range of industries and market verticals
3. Your values must resonate with ours. Our values can be found on the First Focus website on the About Us page
4. You must have a driving passion for helping people understand and use technology within their business that leads you to anticipate and pre-empt customer needs.
