Consulting Lead - Positive Work Culture

Are you looking for a new opportunity? 

The Company

Think Concepts provides IT support, cloud services, and managed IT services for small to medium-sized businesses. Based in a hip Auckland office on East Street, we're a tight-knit team who are passionate about what we do. You will enjoy a competitive remuneration package, which includes a base salary and uncapped sales and performance bonuses, paid monthly.  Our unique bonus and commission structure enables you to build an additional income stream on top of your base salary, and work on increasing it month to month, as you get more and more capable at the role.

If you're motivated to learn and work hard, opportunities for advancement abound. Many members of our team have moved up over the years: a Technician is now the company’s Technical Lead and our CEO began as our Marketing Coordinator!
Our turnover is low – our average length of service is four and a half years – because we genuinely enjoy what we do and working here. Our 2024 employee satisfaction score (eNPS) was 55, significantly above the industry average and considered “excellent”. We also welcome pets and nurture people, striving to help our employees reach their full potential, and have fun while they we are doing it.
