UK-based pharma and consumer specialist Insight Research Group has promoted Laura Atkinson for the new role of Compliance Manager.

Founded in 1983, Cello-owned Insight Research Group has offices in Central London, UK and Midtown Manhattan, US, and employs a team of 120.

Atkinson, who joined in 2003 as a Senior Language Executive, is Insight’s first dedicated Compliance Manager. In her new role, she will ensure the group operates in accordance with all the relevant legal and ethical industry and trade association guidelines, as well as clients’ specific procedures and practices. This includes keeping the firm’s researchers informed of and in line with all relevant MR guidelines as defined by the MRS Code of Conduct, and all ethical issues as specified by the BHBIA, EphMRA, MRS and the ABPI.

She will be supported by a team of in-house fieldwork specialists reporting to Andy Dallas, Director of Field and Compliance, who comments: ‘It has become increasingly complex to follow the individual nuances of each of our client companies’ requirements, especially as these codes of conduct are all constantly evolving. Laura has taken up a vitally important role within Insight; co-ordinating all aspects of compliance across each project.’
