The Associate Director, Strategic Pricing, iMAP will be responsible for calculating and articulating the financial impact of complex INTL pricing topics across the Therapeutics business. This includes high‑priority areas such as the Most Favored Nations and International Reference Pricing Impact. The role demands agility in responding to evolving market dynamics and healthcare policy changes.

The global healthcare landscape is experiencing profound transformation due to regulatory shifts, not only from US entities such as CMS, but also from international governing bodies and government initiatives targeting pharmaceutical cost optimization across markets. As a result, pharmaceutical companies are revising their business practices and financial strategies to align with evolving international pricing policies and reimbursement structures. These changes carry widespread implications, impacting market access, pricing, and profitability on a global scale. In this context, this position is essential for clearly articulating the financial impact of complex international pricing issues to senior management and the C‑Suite, enabling informed decision‑making and strategic planning in a highly dynamic international environment.

This position reports to the Head of International Pricing.

• Anticipate and analyze implications of healthcare policy shifts from governing bodies (e.g., CMS, G‑BA, MHML, CADTH, HAS) and new government initiatives (including Executive Orders), on INTL pricing strategies and business practices.
• Develop and implement strategic recommendations to optimize pricing/sales impact in response to dynamic policy environments.
• Build and maintain strong partnerships with cross‑functional teams, including Market Access, BESD, Brand teams, US Pricing and Brand teams, to ensure alignment and effective execution of pricing strategies.
• Synthesize complex data and insights into clear, actionable reports for Business Evolution and Strategy Development CoE.
• Present findings and strategic recommendations to senior management, including C‑Suite members, supporting evidence‑based decision‑making and long‑term business planning.
• Drive continuous improvement by leveraging data analytics and scenario planning to inform both short‑term and long‑term strategy development including future‑proof alternative solutions (data strategy & dynamic capabilities).
• Monitor global trends and best practices in healthcare policy and pricing to proactively identify opportunities and risks for the organization.

• Lead the adoption of new pricing analytics tools and methodologies across international markets by demonstrating the "value‑add" to the business.
• Simplify high‑complexity pricing analytics into board‑ready visualizations that enable informed, rapid decision‑making in a dynamic environment.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with internal stakeholders and organizational leaders, in International Market Access and Pricing, INTL Finance, Business Evolution & Strategy Development, US Finance / Pricing and US Market Access.
• Act as a consultative resource for Pricing leads across different business units, fostering a culture of rigorous, policy‑aligned pricing thinking.
