We are expanding our Value & Access team, and are seeking an experienced Consultant to deliver strategic, high-quality work for clients, independently managing multiple Value & Access projects end-to-end—from scoping to execution—and leading client communications.
A key focus of this role is leveraging your deep expertise in the global and US access landscape to lead on the development of payer-focused value and reimbursement materials, health economic models, expert elicitation activities, and market access strategy deliverables.
Projects span multiple disease areas; the ability to rapidly assimilate to new therapeutic areas and manage multiple projects is essential.
You will recruit, train and mentor Analysts, nurture long-term client relationships, and build your own pipeline of work.

You will sit as part of the Management Team in Value & Access, with the opportunity to shape and drive team strategy and take part in service area-specific and company-wide Management Team-level training and discussions.
About You
We are looking for a collaborative, self-motivated individual with a strong background in healthcare consulting, especially within market access projects.
You will take pride in delivering exceptionally high-quality work, building successful client relationships, and consistently exceeding clients’ expectations.
You will thrive in a fast-paced environment, staying highly organized, and managing timelines across multiple projects while supporting the project team as needed.
You will have a genuine desire to contribute to the growth of our team and the development of our junior colleagues, leveraging your mentoring and feedback skills to help them succeed.
You also will have a desire to contribute positively to our welcoming, collaborative, supportive and ambitious culture.
