FIRST UK RACKER

Alex - First Racker in the UK

Alex was the first Rackspace employee, joining in the summer of 2000 at the time he took a gamble with a new start up opening in the UK leaving behind the stability of previous jobs at PWC and GE Capital. Starting as all round DCOps, Tech, and general office dogsbody, Alex soon realised his skills could be best utilised directly with customers.

As Rackspace learnt to fly he became a Linux Sales Specialist and was there for several years. Within the last year Alex has moved into a channel sales position where he is focusing on his real love of meeting and forming relationships with customers and partners.

Outside of work Alex enjoys motor biking, socialising and DIY as well as computers and electronics.
