Employee Spotlight: David Minkoff, EVP of Corporate Operations
Welcome back to another installment of our “Thrive Spotlight” blog series.
Our featured employee is David Minkoff, Executive Vice President of Corporate Operations. David oversees Thrives centralized services that help support clients 24×7.
David calls Bucks County, Pennsylvania, home. He’s an avid Philly sports fan and rarely misses a game! In his spare time, he enjoys spending time with his wife of 24 years, his 21-year-old son, and three dogs.
Hi David! Can you tell us about your background and how you came to Thrive?
I’ve been working in IT since the mid-’90s, starting off doing technical work for a few years before moving into management. I have been working in the MSP space since 2008 where I have been ever since.
In a previous company, I worked with some of the Thrive leadership team and other employees, so I was familiar with Thrive before joining the company in January 2022. When I received a call to work at Thrive, I jumped at the opportunity to work with this amazing team again.
What do you most enjoy about working for Thrive?
That’s an easy one, everyone at Thrive! There are no egos, and everyone has the same goal, to do what’s best for our employees and clients. Everyone is willing to roll up their sleeves and help when needed, which is why we have the best clients, many of them long-term.
Any recent exciting projects at Thrive that you can tell us about?
One of the highlights throughout my career has been the ability to help and support bringing in entry-level IT employees and allowing them to grow and advance their careers within the company. So recently, when Thrive announced that they wanted to launch an Apprentice Program, I was excited to be part of this project.
In this program, Thrive works with colleges in the areas near our offices to bring in full-time apprentices for entry-level jobs in technology. The apprentices work onsite with Thrive mentors for training, support, and certification guidance to help them reach their career goals.
