• Provide operational management for Medical Affairs-led research, including RWE, HEOR, and ISR, including monitoring the contractual commitments of vendors and collaborators to ensure quality and timeline adherence.
• Ensure all evidence generation activities follow ICH-GCP guidelines, SOPs, and compliance requirements for post-marketing research.

Cross‑Functional Partnership:

• Collaborate within Medical Affairs and with Clinical Development, Regulatory, Pharmacovigilance, Commercial, Market Access, and Patient Advocacy to ensure accuracy and balance across communications.
