Christopher Slaughter promoted to leadership position

Livermore, CA, February 12, 2014 – Rob Alston, CEO of Access, the largest privately held records and information management services provider in the United States, announced recently the promotion of Christopher Slaughter to the newly created position of Regional Vice President for the Northwest, effective immediately.

Alston stated, “With the incredible performance of the Northwestern Region since our acquisition of Washington Archives Management – including Chris in his branch management and general management roles – in January 2012 and throughout 2013, Chris has demonstrated insightful team leadership, fiscal responsibility and decision making.” He continued, “2013 was a great year for our Northwestern Region. The market greatly exceeded budgeted financial goals, hit high marks in achieving operational excellence, and provided our signature ‘very best service’ to our clients. Chris’ focus on the numbers, his Team and his clients is a true testament to his leadership. Having recently completed the major acquisition of DataSite Northwest, headquartered in SeaTac, 2014 will be a year of integration and standardization for the significantly enlarged Access region. I am very excited to support Chris in his continued growth as an Access regional leader and I am looking forward to an exciting year ahead with him at the helm.”

Slaughter is a December 2000 graduate of Washington State University. He started his business career with Washington Archives Management in March 2001 as a sales representative and was promoted to the increasingly responsible positions of Operations Manager, IT Manager and Director of Operations. He was responsible for the initial integration of Washington Archives Management into Access and subsequently the integration of the File Box, Blue Bird and Emerald City acquisitions.
