Associate Director - Life Science Advisory - US Market Access

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate. We need to parse the job posting. Key sections: - "What You Will Do": description of role. Could be "About the role" or "Responsibilities". The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide which headings to use based on content. We have content: - Travel Required Up to 25% - Clearance Required None - "What You Will Do": description of team and responsibilities. - "Common Responsibilities And Expertise Include": bullet list of responsibilities. - "What You Will Need": qualifications/requirements. - "What Would Be Nice To Have": nice-to-have. - Salary range: The annual salary range for this position is $162,000.00-$270,000.00. - Benefits: list of benefits. - Possibly schedule? Not mentioned. Travel required up to 25% maybe schedule? Not explicit schedule like full-time/part-time. No schedule info. So we should not create Schedule section. - Pay: we have salary range, so include Pay section. - Benefits: we have list. - Skills: maybe we can extract skills from requirements: strong market research skills, pricing methodologies, Excel, etc. Could be a Skills section. - Qualifications: maybe education and experience. - Requirements: maybe required qualifications. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to preserve all substantive info. We need to output only HTML fragment, no markdown fences. Let's structure:

About the role

maybe include description from "What You Will Do" and travel/clearance. But we also have "Common Responsibilities And Expertise Include" which is responsibilities. Could put that under Responsibilities. We could have:

We have "What You Will Need": Bachelor’s degree; major course of study in science, biomedical engineering, business, or healthcare policy preferred. 6+ years of transferable consulting or relevant biotechnology/pharmaceutical work experience in market access, reimbursement, pricing, health economics, forecasting, and/or pipeline strategy. 3+ years of direct experience in client management and content delivery roles.

Also "What Would Be Nice To Have": Advanced degree preferred, such as MBA, MPH, MS, or PhD. Preference will be given to candidates located within 50 miles of a Guidehouse office. We could split: Requirements (mandatory) and Qualifications (preferred) or Skills. But instruction: Use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide. We could have:

Requirements

Qualifications

Alternatively, we could combine into Skills. But we also have skills like strong market research skills, pricing methodologies, Excel, etc. Those are already in responsibilities. Could create Skills section summarizing: Strong market research skills, pricing methodologies (analog assessment, Van Westendorp, Gabor-Granger, conjoint analysis), primary interviews, Part A/B/D pricing, gross-to-net, Excel financial modeling, health economics, value pricing, practice economic analyses, pricing laws, thought leadership, executive presentation, training junior staff. But we already covered many in responsibilities. Might be redundant. However instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section "Requirements". And maybe Skills not needed. But we need to include Pay and Benefits sections. Pay: we have salary range. Benefits: list. We should not include Schedule. Thus final HTML:

We need to ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like EEO etc. We removed. Check for any duplicated lines: we have "Strong verbal and written communication skills." appears twice in requirements; we can keep once. Also "Superior written and verbal communication skills" and "Strong verbal and written communication skills" are similar; we can combine or keep one. To avoid duplication, we can keep one phrase: "Superior written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to clearly communicate clinical and business implications of technically complex products and services." We also have "Demonstrated track record of managing direct reports and teams of experienced consultants, including managers and consultants." appears once. Now ensure we didn't miss any substantive info: Travel required up to 25% and Clearance Required None included in About the role paragraph. Also we included "Associate Directors oversee multiple projects simultaneously." in About the role. Now check responsibilities list: we included bullet for "Strong Market Research Skills Required." and "Preferred candidates will have experience with various pricing methodologies, including analog assessment, Van Westendorp, Gabor-Granger, and conjoint analysis." That's okay. We also included bullet for "Apply deep experience with: Part A / hospital inpatient pricing and reimbursement.Part B / medical benefit pricing.Part D / contracting.Gross-to-net calculations." Need to format with semicolons. We also have bullet "Build Excel-based financial models to evaluate price-access scenarios and inform pricing recommendations." "Demonstrate strong understanding of health economic methodologies and value pricing constructs." "Construct practice economic analyses under a variety of settings of care and financial ecosystems." "Maintain familiarity with current pricing and access laws and proposed pricing policy." "Demonstrate a track record of thought leadership, written or podium." "Engage with and present to executive-level audiences to deliver actionable insights and recommendations." "Train and develop junior consulting staff." All good. Now Requirements paragraph: we need to include all mandatory items. Let's craft: Bachelor’s degree; major course of study in science, biomedical engineering, business, or healthcare policy preferred. 6+ years of transferable consulting or relevant biotechnology/pharmaceutical work experience in market access, reimbursement, pricing, health economics, forecasting, and/or pipeline strategy. 3+ years of direct experience in client management and content delivery roles. Demonstrated project management skills, initiative, resourcefulness, leadership, and ability to think strategically and creatively. Keen attention to detail.
