•••• seeks a Health Economist to join our successful team, located in our corporate headquarters office in Denmark.
What do we do?
We work with a broad variety of drug delivery products, which is one of •••• key focus business areas. We are responsible for establishing the clinical development strategies, including clinical study synopses. We also provide medical input to device engineering teams as part of the design input processes.
Our ambition:
- Be centre of excellence for device clinical trial and usability testing from early concepts through product life cycle
- Provide effective global clinical development plans balancing stakeholder needs
- Enforce use of Health Economic tools and engage payers in clinical development to substantiate product claims
- Globally attract, retain and develop engaged and talented people who are ready to change
- Set and reach ambitious personal development goals
•••• aims to bridge commercial aspiration with sound scientific evidence, by providing evidence that will enable * to be the industry leader in achieving market access at optimal price. This may involve Patient Reported Outcomes (PRO), economic modelling, database studies, real life studies as well as budget impact models. This type of data can primarily be used in price negotiations with, and subsidy applications to, national or regional authorities and payers in different countries and for various types of marketing activities.
Challenges
Your responsibilities will include managing the process of identifying the potential economic profile of devices across development stages in order to support research prioritization and development decisions. Manage the integration of economics and PRO parameters into the development program.
Manage the efficient and timely provision of key health economics deliverables for health technology assessment authorities, pricing and reimbursement, and marketing of selected •••• brands. Liaise across functions on pricing & reimbursement and clinical development requirements.
Qualifications
As •••• is part of Global Development it is vital that you have an interest in research. The ideal candidate will have experience in health economics and PRO from the pharmaceutical industry or a few years of experience from a similar area.
You need to be collaborative, like to take on responsibility, have excellent interpersonal skills, be a good communicator, be business-oriented and have a well-developed conceptual thinking. The ability to work within timelines and to handle projects in a team-oriented/cross-functional environment is necessary. It is important that you are able to manage working under pressure and to work independently. Desire for self-development is also important in this role. Fluency in English is a requirement. You will work in a global environment with contacts all over the world, which will involve some travelling.
Depending on the qualifications of the candidate the position may become, and be filled by, a Senior Health Economist.
