Healthcare market research specialist The Research Partnership has appointed Sue Rees and Duncan Munro as Directors, as well as Iole Beattie who joins as Associate Director, and Jordan Thomas as Senior Research Executive.

The firm specialises in supplying primary qual and quant market research and consulting services to the healthcare sector. In addition, its RP Therapy Watch service collects data from an online community of specialist physicians across the globe, to enable clients to monitor their market and that of their competitors in real-time.

Rees joins with more than 20 years’ experience, and a focus on healthcare research across both qual and quant global and domestic markets. Most recently she worked at Praxis Research and Consultancy, prior to which, she spent 13 years as a Director at Insight Research Group. Earlier, she held positions at Wyeth, TNS (now Kantar Health), Research International, and India-based agency ORG-MARG.

Munro has 14 years’ pharma research experience, having initially started his career at The Research Partnership in 1999, before joining the international ad-hoc team at TNS (now Kantar Health) where he worked for twelve years and became a predominantly quant specialist focussing on trade-off methodologies, pricing research, and a range of segmentation approaches. He also worked across a wide range of therapy areas including oncology, diabetes, and immunology.

Beattie joins from Synovate Healthcare where she worked for nearly 16 years, latterly as an AD, while Jordan previously served as a Senior Insight Exec at Nunwood, as an SRE at The Research Partnership for a brief spell, and as an Account Executive at Synovate in Australia.

Mary Assimakopoulos, founding Director, comments: ‘We are very pleased to welcome these talented individuals to our team. From our new headquarters based at Putney Bridge in London we are able to continue to expand our international operations in line with our strategy and are now a team of more than 116 global healthcare researchers.’
