Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own end-to-end market access strategy for Obesity assets, from early strategy development through execution, including access strategy, payer marketing, pricing, and contracting in one coherent plan
  • Define the payer value proposition, messaging, and positioning for Obesity assets, tailored to the access barriers and customer dynamics specific to the Obesity category
  • Set and execute pricing and contracting strategy for Obesity assets, balancing access investment against GTN to maximize net trade sales
  • Build and continuously refine the Obesity market access playbook as the category, competitive landscape, and payer response evolve

  • Translate Obesity brand P&L objectives and business goals into access, pricing, and contracting priorities
  • Flag trade-offs between revenue maximization and GTN discipline to the Franchise Lead and USMA-Primary VP, ensuring access decisions reflect enterprise-level economics rather than brand-pressure-driven discounting

  • Serve as the single point of accountability for the Obesity Franchise, bringing together market access and patient services strategies into one coordinated approach that advances patient, customer, and business outcomes.

  • Demonstrated business and financial acumen, including the ability to understand brand P&L dynamics and translate them into access investment and GTN trade-off decisions
  • Strong influence and negotiation skills, with the ability to build trust and drive alignment with senior BU stakeholders
  • Previous supervisory and people management experience
  • Demonstrated agility with ambiguity and organizational change
