Marie Smith

Marie’s role is to support our manufacturing teams and help them to maximise efficiency, with a current focus on the implementation of our new filling line.

Marie joined the company from college as a Production Technician which is often the first rung on the ladder to a career at Porton Biopharma. During the last 18 years with the company Marie has progressed through a series of roles within the department and across our different production units, expanding her skill set and gaining knowledge of our products. Her advice to anyone joining the company is “that is you want to succeed be prepared to step outside of your comfort zone, since it will give you opportunities for learning and development”. That is how she has risen into a middle management role with responsibility to help her team deliver high levels of quality & performance, as well as supporting others implementing operational excellence initiatives.
