Vice President of Academy

Rex Frank

As Vice President of Academy at Pax8, I am responsible for expanding and developing its best-in-class, cloud-based partner education program. Through strategic planning and execution, I lead the Pax8 Academy team to deliver the knowledge, coaching, and skills for effectively growing a cloud practice. I oversee a group of distinguished experts that provide enhanced personalized coaching, enabling partners to become operationally mature and achieve extraordinary success. My leadership and industry knowledge drive the vision of Pax8 Academy, significantly impacting the partner ecosystem and IT channel.   I have over 30 years of IT service delivery experience, with more than 25 years specializing in managed services, and have held several executive-level positions, including Chief Technology Officer, Vice President of Managed Services, and Director of Operations. In 2010, I founded Sea-Level Operations, a leading education firm providing world-class coaching, education, and resources to enable businesses to thrive. I am a recognized industry thought leader and a member of the CompTIA Executive Committee for its Managed Services Community. I was an inaugural member of the True Profits! Service Executive Peer Group and served on the Customer Advisory Board for MSPCFO. I enjoy spending my free time outdoors with my wife Robin, our seven children and growing number of grandchildren.
