Artel announces the appointment of Robert Pineau to national accounts manager and the hire of Trena Penney as marketing representative
Both will be supporting Artel's pharmaceutical and biotechnology customers.
These personnel moves were designed to enhance the firm's ability to meet the demand for its new LDQA (liquid delivery quality assurance) service suite, including automated liquid delivery equipment qualification and optimization, manual pipetting training and certification, SOP review and development support, and regulatory compliance guidance.
"In their new roles, Bob and Trena will be instrumental in helping Artel meet the growing demand for liquid delivery process support and maintain our high level of customer service," notes Kirby Pilcher, president, Artel.
Pilcher continues, "Bob and Trena are superb technologists and have proven their skills in effectively communicating with customers in laboratory settings.
