Location: Burlington, VT
Employment Type: Full-time

WHO WE ARE

Open Approach is a values-driven, client-focused IT services company based in Burlington, Vermont. We deliver exceptional managed technology and phenomenal client support to organizations across New England and beyond. We are a fast-growing Managed Services Provider (MSP) delivering secure, compliant IT solutions to clients in regulated industries. Our team partners with businesses to design and implement IT, cybersecurity, and compliance frameworks that meet strict standards such as NIST, DFARS, and CMMC.

We earn our clients’ business every month by staying relentlessly focused on their success. From the very first interaction to ongoing evolution, we aim to provide seamless experiences grounded in understanding, integrity, and practical solutions. We believe in making thoughtful, informed decisions and creating a lasting impact instead of quick fixes. This translates into long-term relationships with our clients that are rewarding on many levels.
 
At our core, we value equity, humility, excellence, accountability, innovation, and openness. These guide everything we do, from how we collaborate internally to how we support clients through complex technical challenges.

We are continually refining our team, enhancing our capabilities, and investing in talent to drive forward meaningful change. We embrace candid feedback, own our outcomes, and strive to improve every day. If that sounds like the kind of company you want to grow with, we would love to hear from you.

THE ROLE

Join our dynamic and rapidly growing tech company as a key player in providing outstanding customer experience. We are seeking an enthusiastic, empathetic, personable, self-driven individual undeterred by the challenges that come with working in a small but growing tech company.

In the afternoon you may start the onboarding of a new client. If you like the tech, but really enjoy client relations and are unafraid of fluctuating technical challenges, continue on below!
