David Areskog solutions engineer

Hello! I'm Dave, solutions engineer at bzb IT

At bzb, I’m accountable for Service Delivery and Operational Efficiency, with the primary objective of ensuring our clients receive value for money from our proposition. I’m also an experienced IT engineer and Cyber Security specialist.

What is your favourite aspect of working at bzb IT?

I have two things. First and foremost, the people. Everyone is supportive of one another, really cares about the work they produce, and we have a laugh along the way. Secondly, being given the opportunity and time to explore new solutions, test things out, fail and learn.

Why should clients choose to work with bzb IT?

If they’re wanting to get more care and attention out of their IT, than what a traditional MSP might offer. We’re not the cheapest MSP out there, and there’s a reason for that. Our long standing relationships with our existing customers is proof that we’re doing the right thing.

What bit of tech from the last 20 years has impressed you the most?

I’m sure there’s probably more impactful tech I’ve not thought about, but USB C would probably have to be up there. A great example of something that has improved over time. Now small enough to fit on most device types, no longer requires to be plugged in the right way up, has helped reduce/eliminate propietry connectors, and we’re not even fully utilising its power and data potentials.

If you could plan a perfect day away with no responsibilities, what would it look like?

An early morning trip to a local town with the wife, kids and dog, find a nice place for a full english breakfast, followed by a walk in the countryside. Then chilling at home, playing board games with the family, computer games, or getting on with some gardening. Then a takeaway in the evening whilst watching a family film.

Life beyond the office

Spending quality time with family and friends, whether that’s getting out and about with the wife and kids on mini adventures, eating great food, or playing tabletop miniature games / board games with friends. I also enjoy getting to the gym early in the morning a few times each week to help keep the body and mind ticking along!
