Pharma Researcher Purdie Pascoe Hires Four

UK-based pharma researcher Purdie Pascoe has made four appointments at its office in St Albans, including Paolo Gambetti as Innovation Lead.

Founded in 2008 by former Synovate Healthcare execs Marianne Purdie and Guy Pascoe, the company offers full service qual and quant marketing research to the medical device and diagnostics industries. Gambetti (pictured) joins after nearly seven years at healthcare market research specialist Elma Research, where he latterly served as Senior Data Analyst, working on international MR projects for pharma companies. He joined Elma's Milan headquarters in 2014, before relocating to London two years later. In his new role, Gambetti will be responsible for innovating the firm's quantitative offer.

Sara Daoud and Preethika Ganeshan both join the PMCF team as Research Executives. Daoud has a degree in pharmacology from Kingston University and has also worked as an intern with Ipsos; while Ganeshan joins with a degree in Global Health from Queen Mary's University of London. In addition, Eve Parker joins in the newly created role of Office Administrator, following a career in office management and business development, and having worked as a pharma sales rep. As Office Administrator, Parker will support the directors with managing the office, finances, marketing plans and compliance procedures.

Commenting on the appointment, Purdie said: 'We are delighted to welcome Paolo, Eve, Sara and Preethika to Purdie Pascoe. We look forward to breathing new life into our processes and deliverables with Paolo's innovations and to being supported (and organised) by Eve on so many levels. We're also grateful that we are in a position to offer our new young researchers, Sara and Preethika, roles at this time of furloughs and shrinking workforces.'
