This is Frosty, an office cockapoo who holds the position of ‘Barketing Manager’ at ACS Group and has his own Instagram account.

Characterised as ACS’ “most popular team member”, Frosty attends the Bradford-based IT provider’s office every day, and has been credited with improved levels of wellbeing across the business since his arrival in 2019.

The curly-haired canine currently has 234 Instagram followers.

Frosty is also perhaps the ultimate ‘Oxygen ice-breaker’, namely fun facts we featured in every reseller, MSP and IT consultancy profiled in this year’s Oxygen 250.
