Big Changes at HMDG
It’s been a whirlwind year at HMDG: almost 12 months to the day Ben Marcilhacy became the new owner of HMDG and a lot has changed, we’ve had plenty of new faces join, new product launches, we launched HMDG Connect, the Private Practice Barometer, and GEO as a service, with more to come.
Contrary to the rumours, Hannah and I didn’t disappear onto a yacht in Saint-Tropez. We’ve been working harder than ever, helping Ben take the company to the next level.
My New Role
I’ll be stepping into a more creative role, focusing on what I do best: content, ideas, and innovation. Expect a lot of fun new things including the launch of The HMDG Innovation Lab early next year.
Ben – Strategic Moves!
Ben on the other hand has spent the past year getting under the skin of the business and really becoming au fait with all things healthcare and HMDG. It’s been a year of learning and doing but now he’s stepping into a more strategic CEO role and making some big plans around HMDG’s next chapter as well as expansion.
New Managing Director
That means we needed someone to run the show as Managing Director, someone who understands the culture and values Hannah and I built. The choice was obvious: Hannah. She’s been there for every decision, every big call, and every moment we avoided crashing into an iceberg. She’ll now be front and centre as MD, driving the business forward.
Strengthening the Team
We also wanted to bring in more structure and direction. Rather than hiring a corporate outsider, we knew we needed someone who understands clinics and the industry inside out. Someone that can hit the ground running and be a huge asset to both the team and our customers.
We’re delighted to announce that Nicki Chick will be joining HMDG in December as COO.
Nicki was instrumental in Six Physio’s growth over the past 13 years, leading operations, marketing, and expansion, including acquisitions. There’s very little about running or scaling a clinic that she doesn’t know. Her expertise will directly benefit our clients, and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome her.
The New Senior Team
From December, HMDG’s senior leadership will be:
* Ben – CEO
* Hannah – MD
* Nicki – COO
* Me – Founder, focused on content, innovation, and maybe the occasional pint
So exciting times ahead!
Michael – Co-Founder HMDG
