Rebecca Geenty, who joins a team led by business manager Nikos Steiropoulos, has worked in the animal health industry for 11 years, mainly focused on the farming industry in various commercial roles, but latterly as the national sales manager for pets at MSD Animal Health.

She said: “Having spent the last five years at MSD I am excited to step back into the farming sector, moving to my current role earlier this year. The aqua industry is truly integrated; with vertically organised companies taking care of the production from the egg to the fillet.”

She has spent her first few weeks on the road, meeting customers, visiting farms and spending time with her team, who work with farm and management personnel in fish farming companies all over Scotland.
