ESA Biosciences, a leader in novel HPLC systems, has appointed Michael Pettigrew as vice president of life sciences sales.
Pettigrew comes to ESA from GE Healthcare Life Sciences, where he served for five years as vice president of sales for North America.
"We're pleased to welcome Mike Pettigrew to ESA," said Magellan's President and Chief Executive Officer, Robert J. Rosenthal. "Mike has a proven track record of accomplishments in life-sciences sales management. He is a strong communicator and motivator adept at leading cross-functional teams to deliver measurable results. His skill and experience in both global strategic account management and development and support of distribution and licensing partners will serve ESA well as we continue to address customers' changing needs and meet our aggressive growth goals. I am confident that under Mike's leadership, ESA will expand sales of the Corona CAD universal HPLC detector and Coulochem and CoulArray electrochemical systems into new applications, markets, and geographic regions." In addition to managing a direct North American and UK sales force, Pettigrew will be responsible for overseeing the company's life sciences distributors and OEM suppliers.
