Meetings:
I have recently been working with Seven Bridges Genomics Ltd helping build their new UK
London office. I had a warm welcome from Julia Fan Li, the new UK Senior Vice President. Julia
brings a wealth of experience, I could not think of anyone better than to build the UK team, and
so far with much success.

2. I have recently placed their Senior Account Manager who brings an abundance of Business
Development knowledge and has a proven sales background within the Genomics Industry. I
look forward to the continued relationship in 2016.

As an expert within my market I am able to provide the best candidates within the Genomics &
Bioinformatics sector.
