Hywel Day joins Napp Pharmaceuticals

Napp Pharmaceuticals has appointed Hywel Day as its new managing director.

It’s a return to Napp for Day, who spent 10 years at Napp from 2003, before moving to Mundipharma.

At that company he served in a general manager role, based in The Netherlands, where he led the business through a substantial transformation, which involved a significant cultural shift and a diversification of the business portfolio.

Day said: “To be given the opportunity to lead a top UK pharmaceutical company is incredibly exciting. Not only is Napp a company with a long heritage of providing innovative, high-quality medicines to patients, but it is also a great place to work.

“I’m looking forward to working with a great bunch of intelligent, diligent and fun people - together, we will continue to nurture Napp’s values of striving for excellence and delivering on our promises to the NHS, patients, our business partners and each other.”
