ABOUT FRASER MACFARLANE

I am a high performing life science leader and adviser with extensive experience leading Global Corporate & R&D Transformations, Operational Management, R&D Project & Portfolio Management, Strategy Development and M&A Post Deal Integration/Separation Programmes. Over the last decade I have delivered on multiple critical GSK strategic priorities, including leading the GSK:Haleon separation which was the largest EU stock market demerger in recent times, key M&A divestments and integrations and a number of global operating model transformations resulting in significant savings, impacting >50k employees and harnessing innovation and growth. I have an exceptional ability to multi-task and effectively manage complex projects and multiple customers with an excellent mix of innovative visionary strategic thinking, negotiation, and pragmatism. I enjoy the complexity and challenges that are associated with these types of projects, not everyone does but I thrive on it. I am often described as an inspirational, adaptable and motivational leader that “gets things done” with pragmatism and an excellence balance of technical, business and people skills. In the end, my ability to inspire, lead and motivate people is how I operate - a leader that cares. I look forward to continuing my journey to learn and make impact in what I do.
