CRANFORD, N.J., July 18, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Atlantis Healthcare US (AHUS) announced three new hires that represent a strategic shift in the company’s business model, expanding account management and adding creative and digital services including user experience design. The new framework allows the AH team to apply their core expertise in health psychology against a much broader business scope of empowering patients to improve their health throughout every stage of their journey.
Akisia Grigsby joins in the new position of Digital and Creative Lead, and will sit within the health psychology division, an acknowledgement of the company’s core equity in behavioral science. Julia Kust and Jaclyn Stephens join as Account Supervisors with strong expertise in brand building and client services, and will be key to growth in US and global pharma business.
“Akisia is a critical hire in the evolution of our company, focusing on behavioral science as applied to creative and UX design, and allowing us to apply behavior science in a much broader sense,” said Amy Parke, US Country Manager, AH. “Julia and Jaclyn come to us with experience in patient support, market access, research and HCP/patient interaction, greatly enhancing our client service areas.”
According to Parke, the changes fulfill a goal since her arrival in April to grow AHUS from a patient support program house into a full-service agency that can create total solutions for pre-diagnosis to diagnosis, to treatment initiation and self-management. She is working closely with Neil Matheson, former Global CEO of Huntsworth Health who recently joined AH as Chairman of the Board, and Jonny Duder, CEO of AH.
“This is an important milestone in the history of Atlantis Healthcare, elevating our ability to leverage more than 20 years of experience in scalable personalized interventions across healthcare,” said Duder. “We anticipate being an innovative leader in the patient space as we continue to increase our capabilities to impact individual health around the globe.” Duder, based in New Zealand, is committed to monthly visits to the US to refine the new model and guide US market business strategy.
