My name is Jessica Ward and I’m currently a Hospital Sales Representative at Pfizer. I trained as a secondary Physical Education and Science teacher, mainly as I wanted to play sports and be outdoors all day! I taught in an all-girls school and later I joined a large pharmaceutical company and was able to put my love of science to use for eight years. Getting overwhelmed with work and babies, and probably not getting outdoors enough, I left to have time at home with my three children. Eventually, I went back to work for a local healthcare digital agency working with the University of Oxford and Pharmaceutical companies, and the fast pace and ‘all hands on deck’ was a real tonic to feeling like I had a purpose. Having got back into the swing of working and being at the forefront of how digital could be used in communication, I then joined Pfizer as a Primary Care Representative in the Thames Valley (Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, and West Berkshire) and earlier this year moved into a Secondary Care Role. My passion is digital and I really enjoy being a digital champion. I want to be more efficient and digital tools can enable that if used with discipline. I love bringing others with me and encouraging the use of digital tools so that we’re all moving at the same pace comfortably.
