Solution Architect (C3S) at coIB in Sydney, New South Wales, AU

Company Description

There are plenty of technology consulting businesses in Australia. Some of them claim to service “Blue Chip clients”. A few of them claim to be specialists in complex project delivery. A smaller group of them also claim to specialize in Digital transformation. We’re one of the very few who can truly claim to be all three of these.

For the last 4 years, we’ve been going about our business without any fanfare or self-adulation. We’ve been focusing on the only thing that really matters to our clients, and that’s delivery. When you get to the core of what clients want, it’s predictable delivery, no surprises and knowing that they're in safe hands.

Our people are the type who thrive in solving technically challenging problems, generally at a largescale. The type of work we do affects business outcomes and helps deliver client strategies, so we’re a group of people who take that seriously. We’re less ping-pong tables and bean bags, more whiteboards and coffee. This is probably why customers come to us with their most complex problems.
