Clients and staff know Keith as our friendly and dependable Client Services Supervisor, but did you know that he's Satellite Office's Employee #2?
2. Our CEO and Founder, Michael McRitchie, is the former CEO of Australia's largest online department store, DealsDirect.
Michael experienced first-hand the numerous benefits of offshoring, so he decided to build his own offshore staffing solutions company. And the rest, as they say, is history.
