GlobaLexicon Hires, Promotes for Director Roles

Paul Williams, former M3 Global Research MD, has re-joined London-based market research and healthcare translation specialist GlobaLexicon as Director, Commercial. In addition, James Heneghan has been promoted to the role of Director, Client Services.

Founded by former Research International exec Daniela Toledo in 2004, GlobaLexicon's team includes project managers and trained linguists who conduct qual and quant research translation, and solutions for coding and content analysis. Last year, the company increased global staff numbers to 90; moved into larger premises in Chicago; opened a new office in Timisoara, Romania; and moved into a larger office for its European Operations Centre in Seville, Spain.

Williams re-joins from respondent access specialist Maru/Blue, where he served as Managing Director. Prior to this he was MD for Europe at healthcare specialist M3 Global Research, Business Development Director at presentation and reporting software firm E-Tabs, and MD of customer satisfaction researcher Lorien Plc. He also served as an Advisory Board member at GlobaLexicon between 2012 and 2015.

Heneghan joined the firm in 2013 as Senior Project Manager, and most recently served as Associate Director. Earlier, he worked in the Medical Translation Division at RWS Group, followed by spells in Spain and Japan. He now takes on responsibility for all of GlobaLexicon's account and project management teams, working closely with its in-house linguistic, quality assurance, and coding and overlay teams.

As well as these new senior positions, the company has hired sixteen new team members at various levels over the past six months, growing the teams in London, Seville and Chicago. Toledo comments: 'Our team's focus on high quality and consultative service, paired with our specialist sector knowledge and our global delivery model, continues to set us apart, even more so in these challenging times. It is great to see more internal hires and to have Paul Williams back on board'.
