Your Role:

This is a highimpact leadership role at the center of Baxter's most complex and strategically important government pricing and compliance initiatives. Because Baxter operates across pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and equipment, the government pricing environment is uniquely intricate - from unbundling requirements to multiagency reporting across CMS, HRSA, VA, DoD, and numerous state programs.

As the Senior Manager, you'll bring clarity and structure to that complexity. You'll lead pricing methodology, manage external partners responsible for pricing calculations, guide regulatory interpretation, and advise Commercial, Finance, Legal, Marketing, and senior leadership on the downstream impact of pricing and contracting decisions. You'll also own the finance partnership, working closely with revenue accounting to manage reserves, monitor longstanding accruals, and prepare the organization for emerging legislative and IRArelated changes.

You'll join a team led by an experienced, wellrespected leader who has grown her career within Baxter and understands this role deeply. It's an exciting moment to step in, as the organization is undergoing meaningful transformation and your perspective will help shape how the function evolves.

• Provide support and coordination for the Medicaid rebate process, manage vendor performance, and cash recovery efforts while maintaining strong relationships with CMS, HRSA, VA, DoD, and state agencies

• Drive process standardization, unbundling initiatives, system modernization, and special projects that shape the future of Baxter's government pricing function

What You'll Bring:

• 8-10 years of experience in Government Price Reporting preferred (open to strong candidates with 6+ years and demonstrated mastery)

• Deep expertise in U.S. government pricing programs, including Medicaid (AMP/BP), Medicare Part B (ASP), 340B, NonFAMP, VA/FSS, and state transparency reporting

• Proven ability to interpret complex regulations, guide policy decisions, and translate methodology into business risk and opportunity

• Experience partnering with senior leaders across Commercial, Finance, Legal, IT, and Marketing to influence strategy and drive alignment

• Strong analytical and modeling skills, including scenario analysis related to price changes, legislative developments, and IRA exposure

• Demonstrated success building sustainable controls, audit frameworks, and scalable processes in highly regulated environments
