Iron Mountain Appoints New Senior Vice President, UK, Ireland and Norway Operations

Iron Mountain, the global leader in information management services, has appointed Peter Eglinton as the new Senior Vice President of its UK, Ireland and Norway operations. Eglinton will take responsibility for evolving and enhancing the way that Iron Mountain delivers services in the region.

Despite the challenging business environment in the past year, Iron Mountain has continued to grow and see success; recently being added to Standard & Poor’s prestigious S&P 500 index and rising to 681 on the Fortune 1000. Eglinton will focus on continuing this trend, whilst also investigating new ways to make Iron Mountain more competitive, and placing an even stronger focus on customer understanding and satisfaction across the entirety of the organisation.

"Peter brings outstanding experience from the logistics sector and certainly has the credentials to enhance the way we service our customers, which was one of his key strengths in his previous role,” said Marc Duale, President, Iron Mountain, International. "I am confident that Peter will help Iron Mountain thrive in the region.”

With more than 20 years of experience in the logistics sector, Eglinton was previously Managing Director of Christian Salvesen’s Transport Division and spent 17 years at Exel.

"Working with an industry leader such as Iron Mountain provides an opportunity and challenge to work with an already successful organisation to find new ways to expand the business,” said Eglinton. "By innovating the way that we organise ourselves, support and incentivise our employees, and the way in which we engage with our customers, we will be able to further enhance the customer experience.”

Eglinton is particularly focused on how Iron Mountain can structure its sales and support teams and further improve and simplify the delivery of services to help organisations reduce the costs and risks associated with information management.

"I’m looking forward to joining the Iron Mountain family,” said Eglinton, "and am confident that we can redefine the way that we do business in the UK, Ireland, and Norway to lead continued and growing mutual success for our customers, and our own organisation.”
