Bio
Natasha Dickinson
Duncan is a real people's person and has exceptional communication skills, the ability to customer handle, friendly behaviour, leadership qualities, and is hardworking. But I think his truthfulness and integrity set him above many others. Loved working with him and coming up with new ideas.
Karen Cloete
It has been a pleasure working with Duncan over the last 5 years at TASK. He always makes time to listen and give his honest professional opinion - always having the business best interest at heart. when starting up TASK Research Academy he has often been my sounding board and has been instrumental in shaping my perspective on brand, marketing and business development.
Caryn Upton
I have worked closely with Duncan over the past 5 years at TASK, and have found his energy and drive to be second only to his ability to host and care for clients. He is a strong team player and clearly an avid learner, demonstrating deep insight and knowledge into the clinical trials industry, despite not having a formal medical background. I enjoy working with him and would recommend him in any team or team lead for business development, brand and marketing, to managing client relationships. He also just happens to make the best cappuccinos!
