In this vital role, you will serve as a key specialist in Global Value and Access (GV&A), providing pricing insights, advanced analytics, and recommendations to optimize portfolio value and mitigate global pricing risks. You will play a key role in strengthening pricing governance, analytics, and reporting capabilities while partnering with affiliates and cross-functional teams to ensure disciplined and consistent price execution across markets.

The responsibilities of the role will include:

• Act as Center of Excellence lead for Launch Sequence Optimisation (LSO) and International Reference Pricing (IRP) analytics.
• Identify and mitigate cross-market reference price spillover risks across the portfolio.
• Apply and monitor global pricing rules, managing deviations, escalations, and governance compliance.
• Ensure consistency in price corridors, baskets, thresholds, and country rock-bottom (CRB) validations.
• Analyze structural ASP erosion drivers and lead root-cause assessments (e.g., IRP, tenders, MEAs), recommending mitigation strategies.
• Support quarterly price reporting, brand performance reviews, and enterprise planning cycles (Budget, LRP, Forecast).
• Contribute to the development of brand-level price defense, contracting frameworks, and rock-bottom principles.
• Support the operationalization and continuous improvement of Global Price Governance processes.

You would be joining the Global Operational Pricing team, comprising Global Access Strategy Leads and Operational Pricing Experts.

What we expect of you:

• Degree educated in a relevant field (e.g., finance, medicine, pharmacy, biology, economics, engineering, etc.).
• Previous market access, pricing and/or commercial experience in a global/international role or direct payer-facing experience.
• Experience with developing pricing strategies and pricing business cases within pharma/biotech.
• Experience of cross-border pricing risk management (IRP, LSO, Price Floors, Gross to Net optimisation) and scenario modelling/analysis skills.
• Advanced analytical and adaptable skills as well as excellent communication and organizational skills.
• Solid understanding of global pricing and reimbursement systems, healthcare, market and competitor trends.

As we work to develop treatments that take care of others, we also care for our teammates’ professional and personal growth and well-being. We offer vast opportunities to learn and move up and across our global organization, and a diverse and inclusive community where teammates are empowered to bring ideas to the table and act.
