On the work
"Variety with specialisation. Most of our European work is in the healthcare sector, and personally about half of my work of recent years has been with one company and the rest spread across several other organisations. The range of issues worked on with the one company has ranged from sales effectiveness to understanding the potential and partnering options for a potential blockbuster launch. This balance gives you both the variety of work but the opportunity to become a trusted advisor to clients."
On ZS values
Treat People Right: “One key thing is the culture. I am not going to describe a specific incident, but I would like to say that the way everyone pulls together and wants to see everyone else succeed is really important. There have been many occasions over the years when colleagues have been there to help me and my project teams.”
On life outside work
"Family, friends, holidays, badminton and squash."
On the London office
"Marble Arch beside Hyde Park is an excellent place to work: good transport, easy to meet friends after work and we can play football in the park in the summer."
