• Market Research: Design and coordinate primary and secondary research projects, manage external vendors, and optimize secondary market data structures (e.g., IMS).
• Strategic Collaboration: Partner with therapeutic business units and Finance to inject robust, data-backed assumptions into forecasting, launch planning, and business cycles.
• Compliance: Ensure all data, insight generation, and research practices strictly adhere to Saudi compliance regulations and Roche global policies.
