Prescient Names New North America President

Biopharma product strategy consultancy Prescient Healthcare Group has hired Paul Harney as President, North America, and a member of its Board of Directors.

Prescient offers a range of product, brand and mature brand planning services from offices in London, New York, San Francisco, New Delhi and Beijing. Harney (pictured) joins with experience from leadership roles at Deloitte Consulting and Quintiles / IQVIA, and areas of expertise including marketing, sales force optimization, medical affairs, business development and supply chain.

In his new role, he is responsible for enhancing and delivering the company's US growth strategy, while also ensuring high levels of client satisfaction. He replaces Mark Little, who will remain with the firm as a SVP, devoting more time to developing client relationships, leading client engagements and expanding Prescient's thought leadership presence.

CEO Jamie Denison-Pender comments: 'Paul brings a rare balance of corporate best practice, a values-based leadership style and the pragmatism required to scale and develop a small and fast-growing consultancy. His combination of consultancy, outsourcing and advertising experience means he has a highly nuanced understanding of the opportunities and challenges facing our clients. We also wish to thank Mark for his five years of exceptional leadership, which has seen the US business more than double in size'.
