Claire Valentine - Life Science Access Academy

View Claire Valentine's Profile

At the tender age of 18, Claire’s career began at Northampton General Hospital, where she trained to become an operating department practitioner. She furthered her career in the NHS as a senior critical care ODP.

Little did she know then that her attributes of tenacity, resilience, empathy and compassion, coupled with the clinical skills, knowledge and experience she gained in the NHS, would play a huge role in her success and passion for improving patient outcomes in commercial healthcare roles.

Claire took great pride in leadership roles managing successful sales teams across the UK and Ireland, driven to ensure patients had access to life-transforming and life-saving treatments.

Claire’s final chapter in her career takes her away from global corporate organisations to join family business, a growing SME with a group of talented professionals passionate about connecting communities with companies and putting Social Value into ACTION by utilising a unique approach to Social Value… The CWaNA exciting times!
