Where it all begins
Day 1 of where JTAC was nothing more than a few friends, joking, laughing, throwing around the idea of starting a business to apply our skills.
​
We all have extensive careers in the emergency services, with a crossed level of skills and experience but sharing a common attribute and that was our involvement with our Medical roles.
​
It just so happened that an event organiser needed a medical team, knowing us and our involvement in the field, they "jokingly" offered us the position if we wanted it.... A moment of sheer coincidence and what could be considered luck.​
​
It took a few days of discussions, back and forth over what we would offer, how we would operate, time commitments, lots and lots of company names and finally deciding we could do it, if only to help a friend with affordable, reliable and committed staff.
Well here we are, the things that matter:
- Insurance
- Uniform
- Certification checks (Yes, we checked each other)
- Company setup
- Equipment
This list could really go on and on, we thought those chats we had prepared us to start a business, but the reality is far from the truth.
Spending hours writing policies, setting up online accounts, registering with our bank, website and email addresses, the seamless part believe it or not, our insurance!
Not exactly simple as we had to get quotes off several companies, but we found a small independent broker (wellbeing insurance) spoke to us like people, ensured our coverage met exactly what we needed and we had a knowledgeable account manager.
