Jan Petracek will replace Clark and step into the role of chief executive of the subsidiary straight away.
Petracek joined the company last November as chief executive of European PharmInvent Services following its acquisition and subsequent integration into PrimeVigilance.
“We are fortunate to have in the wings a replacement CEO of the calibre of Jan Petracek,” said Ergomed chief executive Miroslav Reljanovic.
