About us
Leap has been part of Perth's IT story since 2004. Here's how we got here.
Founded 2004
Leap started in WA in 2004. A merger in 2005 brought things into focus - Leigh and Zaun as equal partners, with a shared belief that businesses deserved better from their IT provider.
The opportunity was clear: organisations needed a partner who understood how they worked, not just what hardware they ran.
Growth
Over time the work expanded - into wider professional services, and into the mining sector that underpins so much of WA's economy.
Growth meant reinvestment: in the team, in tools, in the industry. Joining vendor councils and peer groups, Leap earned recognition that went well beyond Perth - locally, nationally, and internationally.
Today
Today, Leap runs on strong foundations. Peer groups like the Entrepreneurs' Organisation (EO) and Connectwise Evolve have shaped how the business thinks and operates.
EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) keeps the team aligned and the priorities clear. In June 2025, following Zaun's decision to pursue a different path, Leigh became the sole owner of Leap - bringing two decades of experience and a clear vision for what comes next.
2004
Leap founded in Western Australia, with a focus on IT strategy and managed services.
2005
Business merger brings Leigh and Zaun together as equal partners. Niche focus on accounting and professional services firms established.
2008 - 2015
Expansion into broader professional services and the WA mining sector. Team and capabilities grow steadily alongside the client base.
2015 - 2020
Recognition on the national and international stage. Active participation in vendor councils and peer groups including Connectwise Evolve.
2020 onwards
EOS adopted as the operating framework. Membership in the Entrepreneurs' Organisation (EO). Leap enters its next phase - focused, well-structured, and growing.
June 2025
After 20 years of partnership, Zaun chose to take a different path. Leigh acquired full ownership of Leap - a natural transition that keeps the business focused, stable, and in good hands.
Leap has been part of Perth's IT story since 2004. If you want a partner who knows the landscape - and has the track record to back it up - we'd like to meet you.
