Prior to his current role, he served as Chief Operating Officer at Quanticate in the United Kingdom and, most notably, as Global Group President of ICON Clinical Research Services. He has also held executive positions at Covance, MDS Inc. (now part of Syneos) and RPS (now PRA).

Frédéric Paqueville, Executive President at Excelya, said: “This is the right moment to hand the leadership reins of the company to Alan. With our three recent mergers, François and I have taken the strategic moves to give the company we founded European scope. We have put Excelya on a strong path for the future. Alan has the breadth of experience we need to rapidly make Excelya the people-driven European leader that we have always envisioned. We anticipate a smooth transition as we will continue to help Alan define our strategy to ensure our momentum.”
Mr. Morgan said, “I would like to express my gratitude to François and Frédéric for the confidence they’ve shown in me. I am honored to be asked to lead Excelya on its new European path. We will continue to provide the disruptive people-driven approach so that our Excelyates and clients can meet with new possibilities. With our recent mergers, our strong service lines, world-class leadership team, and committed people, I am very confident about our future.”
