Pamela Spence
Pamela has 30 years of practical experience winning new business and building teams. For 8 years, Pamela led the Health and Life Sciences business at EY, during which time the business grew threefold from 1.5bn to 4bn. Operating at the sharp end of what works, Pamela has trained herself and her teams to turn anxiety into confidence when going cold into the C-suite. First and foremost, Pamela is a Biochemist; her love of physiology and neurology alongside social science has been extremely helpful in understanding how humans feel and interact in the moment. In 2025, she founded Qjarli (derived from the Swahili word 'care'), an L&D studio focused on helping executives earn trust quickly and trade in relationship capital.
