Asking for a friend...let's say this friend has the following:

* Knowledge of networks, IT security best practice and business "pain points".
* Professional speaking voice and well-presented.
* Fast learner able to cert-up if necessary.
* 1 GB fibre Internet at home + webcam (ie. remote work ready).
