Q&A with MD Jonathan Asquith
What lies behind Jungle IT’s lightning headcount growth?
Client sentiment is at the heart of everything we do. Compared to an industry world-class standard of 70, our Net Promotor Score is consistently above 90, and having happy clients is a huge factor in our growth.
What do you see as your biggest growth opportunity for the next 12 months?
Cyber security is huge. Many SMEs just aren’t adequately prepared for a cyber incident.
2024 would be a successful year if…
We’re submitting a brilliant project entry for Microsoft Partner of the Year that we’re incredibly proud of. It would be a bonus if we won.
What’s a strange or interesting fact about Jungle IT most people won’t know?
Our Chairman was my first-ever boss, and although we haven’t worked together every year since, it’s interesting how things sometimes come full circle.
