I’m looking forward to working with Highland Marketing, and, in turn, supporting organisations looking to improve the quality of healthcare, not just domestically but internationally.”

Mark Venables, Highland Marketing CEO added: “I was keen to get Kerry on board our expanding advisory team, especially given his impressive experience in GP practice and clinical research. This addition gives us more industry intelligence at our disposal, ensuring our carefully-researched tailored marketing communications programs are second-to-none for our clients.”
