Chiltern International is continuing its US expansion with the announcement that Diana Wood has been promoted to vice president of business development for the United States.
Wood joined Chiltern at the beginning of 2003 in the business development department and has achieved significant success with several key new business wins.
In her new role she will have responsibility for business development in the United States marketplace from Chiltern's three US offices in Carlsbad, CA, Atlanta, GA and Austin, TX.
Before joining Chiltern Wood worked in clinical development with a focus in oncology and medical devices plus in biotechnology business development.
Aidan Nuttall, president Chiltern US, commented "We are very happy with the progress made in business development in the last year and with Diana's appointment, Chiltern US is poised to move ahead rapidly taking significant market share in the coming year. "Even though the industry has traditionally continued to spend on R and D, even in lean economic times, the recent growth figures and lower interest rates do seem to be signalling a reasonable economic recovery and we want to be in the best position possible to make the most of that.
"The introduction of a senior management team is the next step to support the company's continued growth here and to achieve its long term strategic goals worldwide".
