This latest announcement signals our commitment to offering the same level of customer service throughout the EMEA region."
A-LIGN's EMEA presence will be headed by the Vice President of Sales, EMEA, Huw Pegler, and Senior Consultant, Craig Burns. Previously a divisional CIO for the Federal-Mogul Corporation and a sales director at both NCC Group and Cisco, Pegler brings deep experience as a leader in the information technology sector. As a Payment Card Industry Professional (PCIP) and Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) and ISO 27001 Lead Auditor, Burns brings strategic technical experience to A-LIGN's EMEA clients.
"I am excited to join the A-LIGN team at this time," said Pegler.

While A-LIGN has continued to service over 1,900 clients globally, adding key resources to expand into the EMEA affirms its commitment to providing our clients with consultants located closer to where they operate.
