Jace
Over 30 years of supporting teams across respected Australian and global organisations
About me
I'm a Sydney-based IT contractor with more than 30 years of experience helping organisations solve complex technology challenges, modernise their IT environments, and get greater value from their technology investments. As a certified IT professional and accredited Microsoft Partner, I combine deep technical expertise with practical business outcomes.
I support businesses across Australia and New Zealand using secure collaboration and remote access technologies. Having delivered consulting, support, and project services remotely for many years, I'm able to work seamlessly with organisations regardless of location. This approach keeps costs low, improves responsiveness, and enables faster project delivery. For clients across metropolitan Sydney, I'm also available on-site for meetings, workshops, hands-on support, and project delivery.
When you work with me, you work directly with the person doing the work. There are no account managers, call centres, or layers of escalation. You'll receive expert advice, responsive support, and practical solutions from someone who takes the time to understand your environment, your challenges, and your business goals.
Over the years, I've worked with organisations of all sizes, from startups and small businesses to large enterprises, government agencies, financial institutions, and global technology providers. I integrate quickly into existing teams, understand complex environments, and focus on delivering measurable value from day one.
My goal is simple
To be your trusted IT advisor and long-term technology partner. I provide independent guidance, practical solutions, and dependable support to help your business operate securely, efficiently, and with confidence.

AI Jumpstart Package for Small Business
Get your business AI-ready and start delivering value with Microsoft 365 Copilot in weeks, not months. Through a practical, hands-on approach covering AI strategy, readiness assessments, deployment, training and automation, I'll help your team adopt AI with confidence and achieve measurable business outcomes.
We start with a workshop to understand your business, goals, processes and challenges. Together, we'll identify where AI can save time, improve productivity, reduce costs and create new opportunities.

Regular workshops, reviews and strategy sessions help your team continuously improve AI adoption, discover new use cases and maximise return on investment as AI capabilities evolve.
However and wherever your business works, I fit around you — not the other way around.
Got a team or office in another country? I can support your staff and systems overseas, not just here in Australia and New Zealand.
When an upgrade or change could disrupt your working day, I'll do the work after hours or on weekends so your business keeps running.
I'll help your staff work comfortably and productively from home with professionally configured home office setups, secure remote access and ongoing support. I'll ensure your team stays connected, productive and secure, without the technology headaches.

What clients say
"Jace has been our go-to IT consultant for over three years. His response time is incredible, and he solves problems our previous provider would take days to address. The direct communication makes all the difference."
"As a startup, we needed flexible IT support that could scale with us. Jace set up our initial infrastructure and helped us navigate our first major growth phase. His expertise saved us from costly mistakes."
"We brought Jace in for a critical cloud migration our internal team wasn't equipped to handle. He delivered on time and under budget — and transferred knowledge so we could maintain it ourselves."
