A unique blend of technical and commercial know-how

Roger, the CEO. Roger has a Master of Physics from the University of Manchester and has gone on to complete qualifications at The University of Cambridge and The University of Oxford. Ensuring the continuation and development of relationships with stakeholders is really at the forefront of Roger’s daily work but, his door is always open to the QD team whenever his impressive catalogue of knowledge is required.

Sally, Head of Operations, has the team with the most diverse roles. Sally has a Master of Chemistry from the University of Sheffield and then went on to receive her PRINCE2 Practitioner qualification, the gold standard, in Project Management. Encouraging her team to pursue professional qualifications to ensure QD has the best in the field and remain at the top of their game is one of her top priorities. Sally ensures the company culture at QD remains diverse, upbeat and generally a great place to work!

Liam, Head of Research and Development, drives the development of cutting edge technology from Quantum Detectors. Liam has a Doctor of Philosophy in Structural Biology from the University of Manchester. Often when working with developing technology the R&D team are encouraged, by Liam, to consider any challenge or setback as a learning opportunity. Liam is an integral, hands on member of the senior leadership team, taking pride in the cutting-edge products, innovative science QD customers achieve and his team.

Olivia, Head of Sales and Marketing. Olivia has a Doctor of Philosophy in Protein Crystallography from UMIST and spent time as a post doctoral researcher at the ESRF in Grenoble. Olivia spends much of her working week liasing between our customers and QD, ensuring the science they want to achieve is possible with our solutions. Establishing a customer centric approach to everything the Sales and Marketing team do is Olivia’s top priority. Despite working in sales, fundamentally, Olivia is a scientist, and has strong empathy for the challenges our customers face. Building a trustworthy relationship is key to QD’s success.

The Sales and Marketing are the true jet setters at Quantum Detectors. Not only are Olivia’s team-based globally in Oxford, Manchester, Glasgow and Oregon, USA, but they can often be found on a flight with their main objective, to interact with Quantum Detector’s user community. Customer visits, conferences, and exhibitions are at the heart of this team, and always interested in the new science being produced by our technology. This team is made up of true in-field experts with degrees in Mathematical Physics, Physical Sciences, and Protein Crystallography.

The Operations team are at the centre of our world at Quantum Detectors, connecting all our teams together and ensuring our processes and projects stay optimised. Whilst being crucial to our everyday runnings you can find Sally’s team working in finance, project management, production, purchasing and they even find time to manage our office!

Research and Development is where the magic happens. Liam’s team are at the forefront of Quantum Detectors innovations, by developing new and existing technology. R&D work closely with the Quantum Detectors user community to support and facilitate their projects, science and technology. The R&D team are made up of engineers working in design, software and product specialties.
