Dechra Veterinary Products has made new appointments to enhance the service it offers to companion animal veterinary professionals.
It has appointed three new Companion Animal Territory Sales Managers – Robin Hills to cover the North East, Sarah Halfide for London and Karen Richardson, who will assume responsibility for the South East.
Dechra introduced the new territory roles in addition to its existing network to provide an increased level of support across the country in response to a heightened demand for its portfolio of products.
Robin Hills is a qualified Veterinary Nurse who has served as a Head Nurse and Practice Nurse at a variety of practices. As well as running his own animal sanctuary on his family farm in Northumberland, he has experience in orthopaedics, ophthalmology and qualifications in poultry husbandry and herpetology.
Liverpool University graduate Sarah Halfhide, who has a degree in Bioveterinary Science, joins Dechra from a background in equine veterinary practice and has worked on dairy and poultry farms, in kennels and catteries, with DEFRA and in abattoirs as well as several livery yards.
Karen Richardson is also a trained Veterinary Nurse, who was a Head Nurse at a mixed practice before moving into the pharmaceutical industry.
Scott Shearer, National Sales Manager, said: “We are delighted to have recruited three people with such strong foundations in the animal health industry to the Dechra team.
“Their veterinary experience will help us to continue enhancing the level of support we provide to our customers across the country.”
