About Datacom
Datacom is Australasia's largest homegrown technology services business of over 7600 people, from humble beginnings as a small family business, we have enjoyed healthy, organic, and sustainable growth to become a large multinational, that proudly holds on to our ‘small family business’ feel.
At the centre of our vision and values are people: our people. We are guided by what is best for our staff, our customers, and our communities.
Growing to dominate the New Zealand government and corporate IT market, we expanded into the Philippines, Malaysia, and Australia in the mid-90s and have been growing in those regions ever since.
We are embarking on a goal of building our Application Services capability in Philippines. This exciting and strategic intention will see a team of Software and Platform professionals working seamlessly and virtually with our 1300-strong team across New Zealand and Australia.
Do you have what it takes to help us grow? This is your chance to be part of something new, getting on from the ‘ground floor’ and benefiting from all the up-side of a ‘start-up’ initiative with the security of a large multi-national (and yet none of the down-side).
