It usually starts like this.
You’re grabbing a coffee somewhere in Sydney, pretending you’re just “checking emails,” when in reality you’re solving three client problems, calming down a fourth, and wondering if there’s a role out there where you could actually shape things instead of just reacting to them.
Good news, there is.
About First Focus
First Focus is Australia’s #1 mid-market Managed Service Provider, and yes, Cloudtango has now told us that nine years in a row. At this point it’s less “award-winning” and more “we should probably clear some shelf space.”
We’re now pushing close to 400 people globally, and just when things were getting interesting, we’ve announced our merger with Integris. Which means we’re about to become one of the largest and broadest SMB MSPs on the planet.
No pressure.
What that actually means for you is simple: bigger clients, broader capability, more opportunity, and a front-row seat to something genuinely exciting, without losing the culture that got us here in the first place.
We’re still a business where people know your name, where leadership is accessible, and where being informed, aligned, supported, and rewarded isn’t just a slide in a deck, it’s how things actually run day to day. You can read more about how we think about that here: https://www.firstfocus.com.au/about-us/ ... check out the values. And yep, we know everyone has these, but here we hire by them, reward by them, and make business decisions using them.
The Role
This role is for someone who’s a bit tired of being “the account manager” or “the consultant” and would quite like to be both, properly.
You’ll operate as a trusted advisor and Enterprise Account Manager, working with clients a range of clients, some approaching 1000 seats, partnering directly with senior stakeholders and the C-suite. You won’t just manage relationships, you’ll shape them.
The way this role plays out is not fixed. There's no dusty playbook to follow. You get to build this role in a way that actually makes sense, for you and for your clients.
You’ll help organisations navigate complexity, make smarter decisions, and occasionally stop them from buying something they absolutely do not need (they’ll thank you later).
If you’ve ever wanted to have a bigger impact, this is where you stop saying it and start doing it.

The Ending Bit (Where This Comes Full Circle)
Remember that coffee?
The one where you’re juggling problems, making decisions, and quietly being the person everyone relies on, without always getting the space to do it properly?
This role is that moment, just with the backing, autonomy, and scale to actually do it well.
So next time you’re sitting there, thinking “there has to be something better than that,” you’ll know there is.
Because ideally, you’ll already be doing it.
