Our History

Old computer - it network historyFounded in 1994, IT Networks has a rich history as one of Melbourne’s leading managed service providers, managing IT projects and technology assets, often in sensitive customer environments. This enabled us to amass a wealth of experience and customer trust and loyalty.

In this time IT Networks has evolved to encompass a growing team of qualified and dedicated support and engineering specialists.

From always updating and honing our existing knowledge and services, to procuring, integrating and supporting your business technologies, we become your full-time, effective and accountable virtual IT Department, without the cost of employing a full department. Win-win!

Our commitment is to grow the business for the benefit of clients, suppliers, employees and owners.

Leadership

IT Networks is an Australian owned technology services company providing managed IT services and support to SME organisations in Healthcare, Financial Services and Not-for-Profit sectors.

The company is jointly owned by Jim Kay, the Founder and CEO and Kim Pham who started at IT Networks as an outstanding graduate and technology genius, and subsequently joined Jim as a business Partner.

This balanced, effective and (dare we say) relaxed partnership is well recognised and appreciated by the company’s loyal and long-term clients. Our clients value our committed service that ensures their technology, and therefore business, is always ON. They equally value our proactive expert advice that is available anytime, anywhere.

For us, leadership is about consistently providing a fit-for-purpose customer centric solution. This means using our expertise and communication to solve what can be a complex problem in a way that is right for our customers evolving needs.

Kim Pham

Kim Pham dislikes titles. He would prefer to be called a Geek rather than a CTO, or Chief Technology Advisor, the role he is recognised and respected for by his team and clients.

Kim lives and breathes technology and tech innovation. His excitement with cracking new technologies and building them into client solutions perfectly matches Jim’s energy and passion for developing bullet-proof business processes and life-long customer relationships.

“Secret to reliable technology? Do it right the first time.” Kim Pham

Jim Kay

Jim’s passion, as a leader of a technology services company, is to provide his customers with a true competitive edge and freedom from unnecessary mundane tasks, so they can do what they do best, better.

“I only make money if it works for my clients.” Jim Kay

Our People & Culture

Our business culture is 100% customer centric. It is also intrinsically linked to our business model grounded in our Purpose, Vision and Core Values.

In the digital world of ‘Everything-As-A-Service’, we, as a business and team, exist to help our Customers harness technology to deliver superior outcomes for their customers, patients and communities through our ‘Service is Everything’ philosophy.

This philosophy enables us to humanise the relationship between people and technology in healthcare, financial services and not for profit sectors. Because we focus on specific industries sectors, we intimately KNOW the domain, technologies, workflows and the governance environment, as well as the ‘human factor” challenges of our customers and market. This translates into the best solutions to their specific business problems.

Our focus on customer outcomes foster agile and independent decision making. Every team member at IT Networks is empowered to take leadership in their role, and take actions to deliver customer outcomes, and therefore, business outcomes.

We work in an open office environment, together and constantly interacting with our customers via a range of channels. This creates a strong communication flow, supporting the Brand Values that enable us to deliver customer service, which in turn, builds customer loyalty and mutual success.

While very much focused on our professional work, we are a close and supportive group. We all enjoy time flexibility with options for virtual, remote work, an employee wellness program and Wellness Coach.

In a nutshell: at IT Networks you are empowered and independent but never alone!
