Paterson, who most recently led the Group’s functional specialist brand Drummond Bridge brings with her almost 20 years of senior recruitment experience.
Commenting on the move, Jacqui said; “Demand for board level talent with cutting edge insight in the areas of Procurement and Supply Chain has gone through the roof over recent months. Transitioning to Livingston James will allow me to provide dedicated focus to these key strategic appointments at an Executive level coupled with a broader leadership advisory service offering to clients in the logistics, manufacturing, and pharmaceuticals sectors, and beyond”.
Livingston James Group Chairman and CEO Jamie Livingston commented; “Rapidly changing geo-politics, the UK’s impending exit from the EU, and the continued and evolving response to the global pandemic have come together to create unprecedented challenge for companies with global supply chains.
“Jacqui’s transition to focus on high impact senior appointments in this area is a key part of our client-centric response to the pandemic. The move further enhances Livingston James’s growing suite of services for organisations taking a proactive response to the rapid changes of the market now whilst building strategy for a post-Covid future”.
