Continent 8 Technologies, an award winning multi-jurisdiction hosting and connectivity provider, have appointed Roberta Castle as account director based at the company’s head office in the Isle of Man.

Peter Williams, global sales director for the group commented: “Roberta is a great addition to our team and joins us as we embark on an expansion of our Isle of Man data centre, which will also see us achieve ISO27001 information security accreditation.  She brings along a wealth of local knowledge and experience within the offshore business community, where she is highly regarded for her ability to deliver outstanding customer service.”

Peter continued: “Continent 8 are keen to demonstrate our commitment to the Isle of Man and to continue to develop our relationships with all sectors of the island’s business community.  Roberta will be key to this, supported by our existing local team.”

Roberta joins Continent 8 after seven years with Manx Telecom where she was a corporate account manager responsible for the company’s key strategic accounts.

Roberta said:  ‘Continent 8 is a progressive, agile company with a portfolio of products and services that I believe offer unique benefits for both local and global customers.  Offering connectivity solutions that are entirely owned and managed by Continent 8 enables us to offer a single point of contact and responsibility for global companies. I am very much looking forward to creating greater local awareness of Continent 8, whilst strengthening and building on existing customer relationships.”
