Translate complex business questions into analytical methodologies, business rules, data requirements, and scalable solutions.
Use MySQL, advanced Microsoft Excel, Power BI and other analytic tools to manipulate, integrate, analyze, and validate large datasets and troubleshoot complex data issues.
Apply deep knowledge of pharmaceutical reimbursement, including payer channels, formulary coverage, utilization management, payer/PBM relationships, plan structures, and patient access dynamics.
Develop methodologies that translate market access data into actionable HCP-, account-, payer-, geographic-, and national-level insights and field-facing messages.
Own quality control and validation of analytical methodologies and client deliverables, including investigation and reconciliation of discrepancies across data sources and systems.
Serve as the analytics and market access subject matter expert throughout the product development lifecycle, including requirements, development, testing and validation, launch, data migrations, recurring refreshes, and enhancements.
Partner with development, UX, account, strategy, production, and external data-provider teams to ensure solutions are accurate, scalable, actionable, and delivered on time.
Serve as a senior analytics subject matter expert in client meetings and pre- and post-sale discussions, clearly communicating complex methodologies, findings, limitations, and recommendations.
Establish efficient, repeatable processes and high standards for analytical rigor and quality.
Remain hands-on as needed to investigate data, troubleshoot MySQL queries, perform Excel-based analyses, validate methodologies, and resolve complex data challenges.
What You’ll Need
