Castle Access, Inc., a provider of enterprise data centers, recently announced the appointment of Joe Alfrey as Managing Director. The company says that Alfrey's appointment aligns it with that of its joint venture partner Xertix, the multinational IT services provider, and gives clients in Southwestern US and Mexico access to an integrated portfolio of enterprise data center and mission-critical managed services.

According to it, Alfrey will assume the day-to-day leadership of all aspects of its operations, reporting directly to its Board of Directors.

Highlights of Alfrey's tenure as CFO include the opening of the company's 88,000 square foot enterprise data center, the successful SAS70 Type II certification audits, and attraction of multi-million dollar investments to fuel expansion of data center capabilities and value-added IT services. Alfrey is a Certified Management Accountant and holds a BBA in Business Economics from the University of San Diego and an MBA in Finance from San Diego State University.

"As our company has made the transition to being affiliated with a larger multinational group, we have been looking for a leader who could handle all aspects of our rapidly expanding operations and customer commitments. Given Joe's deep knowledge of both organizations and strong background in IT solutions, he is in the perfect position to drive the integration of the two companies, enhancing our ability to provide high-value solutions to our customers," noted Mark Hopperton.

"Xertix's commitment to Joe arises from confidence gained during our interaction with Castle Access as this association was developed and consummated. Given his deep understanding of what Xertix represents on a regional basis, we are confident that he will focus our entire organization's skills and resources to provide the best service to our clients in the region," said Murray Case, CEO & Director General of Xertix.
