About the job

Looking to launch your career at the cutting edge of healthcare? Join Sanofi for a chance to develop with mentoring and guidance from inspirational leaders while helping to make an impact on the lives of countless people worldwide. As Market Access Analyst in our Market Access team, you'll work in close collaboration with the Market Access and Public Affairs Team, Sanofi Business Units, North America and Global Access and Brand teams, Medical Affairs, and other functions.

You will also support the development and implementation of the integrated payer and HTA strategy to obtain access and reimbursement of Sanofi products.

The critical success factor for this role is assisting in shifting the dialogue with the payers about the value of the Sanofi offerings, which will result in their increased affordability and accessibility for patients through the improvement of patient outcomes, which in turn impacts efficiency within the healthcare system.

We are an innovative global healthcare company, committed to transforming the lives of people with immune challenges, rare diseases and blood disorders, cancers, and neurological disorders. From R&D to sales, our talented teams work together, revolutionizing treatment, continually improving products, understanding unmet needs, and connecting communities. We chase the miracles of science every single day, pursuing progress to make a real impact on millions of patients around the world.

Main responsibilities:

• Assist in developing, maintaining, and continuously optimizing the market access strategy and payer value proposition throughout its lifecycle.
• Support the formulation of evidence-based payer value propositions based on a robust understanding of payers and their decision-making systems.
• Contribute to defining the overall payer strategy to execute the reimbursement and/or tendering strategy, inclusive of the integration of required stakeholders, policy, KOL influencing activities, and all relevant functions.
• Assist in proactively defining the required strategies to shape and influence the desired marketplace and facilitate the implementation of the plan greater than two years in advance of anticipated customer needs.
• Ensure the execution of reimbursement submissions and rebuttals at HTAs, provincial and hospital levels by supporting the building of high-quality value dossiers with medical, health economics, marketing, and provincial payer managers to include clinical dossiers, health economic budget impact models, and any evidence that can impact decisions.
• Utilize customer insights and input to elaborate new and innovative strategies with federal and provincial drug plans, cancer agencies, hospitals, and blood services to optimize reimbursement of Sanofi products and offerings in collaboration with the provincial payer manager, business intelligence, health economics, marketing, and pricing to optimize revenue for the brands.
• Collaborate with the Pricing team to develop sustainable business and achieve local and global approval of the pricing strategy for new products, taking into account the policy and political environment (payers, pCPA, PMPRB), the reimbursement challenges, and financial considerations.
• Work with product managers and financial analysts to generate forecasts, including market access projections and product penetration analysis. Ensure validation with provincial and private payer managers.

About you

Experience:

• Experience in the healthcare arena and/or in the pharmaceutical industry, either through working in pharmaceutical access departments or in the development of negotiation strategies for payers.
• Experience with reimbursement and HTA pathways, but also health economics would be a great asset.

Soft and technical skills:

• Excellent interpersonal and communication (both oral and written) skills.
• Excellent analytical skills, strategy, organizational agility, and ability to deal with ambiguity.
• Understanding of various health system databases (i.e., IQVIA, pharmacy claims databases) and competency with Microsoft (i.e., Excel, PowerPoint).
• Expertise in manoeuvring within the government system, especially within the provincial drug plans and health agencies.
• In-depth knowledge and understanding of the healthcare and reimbursement landscape, together with the understanding of strategic interplays that influence payer decisions.
