They say I’m the “spider to the web”. I’ve been with the company since 2015, yet it still feels like a honeymoon period over and over again. Coming from the Beauty/Service industry with no previous IT training, it’s definitely a challenge trying to piece all IT terms as a whole. However, it was the challenges that allow me to understand all clients’ needs and grow with their business.
Rachelle manages the overall operations for Singapore, including being involved in all project planning.
“There are no limits to what you can accomplish, except the limits you place on your own thinking.”
I spent 20 years working in the hospitality business firstly at a safari park in the UK and then had the opportunity to relocate to Hong Kong in 1995 to work at Ocean Park for Compass Group PLC. I managed the overall Hong Kong business for Compass for 7 years before being relocated to Singapore. It was during this time in Singapore, when Compass were acquiring a local business that I started using FunctionEight to handle the data security, business continuity and day to day IT support for our administrative office of 40 people.
After leaving Compass in 2009 I had the opportunity to work with FunctionEight to try and develop the Singapore business. After 2 years I took the option to buy a shareholding in the business and the rest as they say, is history. This was something of a change from working for a large multinational company but has proven one of the best decisions of my career. FunctionEight has a team of dedicated people and owners who are passionate about their customers
Hi I am Phil Aldridge. Initially I trained in architecture but then developed skills running computer systems for architects and engineers. I came to Asia in 1991, did a B.Sc in Applied Computing and finally branched out into Regional IT Management roles with various Multi National Firms. Then I joined FunctionEight in 2001 contracting but joined full time in 2006. The rest as they say is history.

Most people might baulk at being labelled the ‘missing link’, but FunctionEight Managing Director Martin Abert is comfortable with the description.
“I’m the link between the hardened IT techies and our clients who, like most normal people, are mystified by computers. I translate the client’s needs and wants to the technical staff – which is a link that is missing from most other similar IT solutions providers.”
Being a Land Surveyor by profession with no previous IT training, Martin is in a good position to communicate the benefits of systems/solutions and preventative maintenance in layman’s terms – and as somebody who is passionate about meeting people and talking (in the broadest terms) about how FunctionEight’s services can benefit all businesses, it’s a role he is ideally suited to.
Started 2017, with enthusiasm to cope up with new technology in IT field through F8. Given my overall support with my acquired knowledged and upgraded skills to guarantee effective and efficient service is my purpose.
Managing the helpdesk department, ensuring smooth operations of the customers through remote technology and supporting Sg-Hk on-site team are my responsibilities.
Hi all, I am Jordan Gall. I moved on a whim from Australia to Asia in April 2012 and have not looked back. A technology connoisseur, priding himself on consistency and breadth of knowledge. I joined FunctionEight in April 2012 in Hong Kong, and have spent the last 5 years in Singapore where I’m responsible for the operations of the business.
