  CCL Pharmaceuticals

  Jan 2019 - Oct 2021

  After establishing key baselines and gaining a deep understanding of the pharmaceutical business, I began developing a data warehouse (or datamart) to integrate multiple data sources, including IQVIA, Sales & Marketing data, Sales Analyzer, HR, Finance, and production data. My BI strategy was recognized by the CEO for its significant impact on decision-making, leading to acknowledgments in the form of Value Appreciation Cards (VACs), a cash prize, and a promotion during my very first appraisal.

I developed a strong BI strategy and worked tirelessly to make it a success. This dedication earned me the highest salary increase in CCL’s history and marked a period of exceptional growth in my career. Along the way, I gained technical skills in Excel, Power BI, SQL, and Power BI Report Server, as well as important soft skills like business communication, understanding stakeholder needs, and presenting data to senior leadership, including the CEO and Board of Directors.
