I am an experienced corporate leader who has worked across multiple industries and geographies. I started my professional life as a graduate in the Deloitte London office within their Management Consultancy Division and helped deliver complex Financial Services projects in Qatar, Germany and the UK. This opened an opportunity for me to work in Private Equity where I was based in Dublin and Buenos Aires and delivered on transactions in Ireland, UK, USA and Latin America. In 2010 I returned to Ireland where I initially contracted for KPMG to help them successfully grow their R&D tax team as a business development manager before joining a boutique Strategy Consultancy firm called Prospectus. In Prospectus I focused primarily on the Health and Lifesciences sectors and worked with a range of clients across the health ecosystem both public and private including the HSE, Department of Health, Regulators, Public and Private Hospitals, Industry bodies and directly with Pharma and MedTech companies with a particular focus on MAx projects.. My expertise in the Health and Lifesciences allowed me to take an in house Strategy role in Novartis. Initially I was focused on working to develop and support the rollout of the company's Global Business Shared Services' Strategy. I then had the opportunity to build, lead and grow two teams within the Novartis Global Patient Access Services Function spread between Dublin and Hyderabad focusing on Government Affairs / MAx Strategy / Health Policy and Value Communications. In this position I helped create a pan-European stakeholder forum of ex-payors to better understand HCS needs across Europe, the Transformation of the Region Europe MAx function, the development of a MAx capability programme in conjunction with international faculty for senior Oncology leadership and also helped to deliver negotiation training to local MAx Teams across Novartis. I was promoted to the leadership team of the Novartis Ireland affiliate as Head of Innovation and Excellence where I have had responsibility for; Commercial Excellence, Digital Transformation, Healthcare Solutions, Launching Biosimilars in the Irish market and an admin / process owner team. I am passionate about people and look to create an environment where teams are supported to fulfill their potential and I put an emphasis on the personal development of team members. I am now working independently and I am open to explore opportunities with progressive organizations that match my own philosophy, where I can add value and create opportunities for me to grow and learn.
