ATLANTA – Oct. 9, 2007 – Northgate HR, a supplier of specialist software, IT services and outsourcing solutions to the human resources (HR) and public services market, today announced the appointment of Kay Mason to president of Northgate HR, US. In this role, Mason will guide the company as it expands its presence in the US, leveraging her past successes managing Northgate’s Moorepay division in the United Kingdom.

She has three years of experience with Northgate and extensive experience managing customer relationships and overseeing the introduction of new products to market. Mason is also an expert at integrating companies following acquisitions, having led six in 18 months with Moorepay.

The new, combined Northgate and ARINSO organization offers end-to-end HR solutions, encompassing systems integration, HR outsourcing and technology solutions and implementation.
