Trevor Pill, Managing Director said: “We’re delighted to have Laura, Katy and Lewis join the talented Onyx Health team to provide further creative and project management support. The north-east has lots of talented people and as we continue to grow and make a global impact, we want our team to fulfil their potential and career aspirations without needing to leave the area.  

Our clients across the pharmaceutical and biotech sectors appreciate our collaborative nature and our ability to get the job done with a friendly and honest approach, qualities synonymous with north-east culture. Our new starters have these qualities in abundance and I’m looking forward to seeing the impact they’ll have on the agency.”
