Associate Director - Life Science Advisory - US Market Access
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Pay and Schedule only if posting actually states them. The posting includes salary range: "The annual salary range for this position is $162,000.00-$270,000.00." So we can have Pay section with that. Schedule? Not mentioned. Travel Required Up to 25% - that's travel, not schedule. Could be considered schedule? Probably not. So no Schedule section.
We need sections: About the role (maybe from "What You Will Do" paragraph). Responsibilities (list of duties). Requirements (maybe "What You Will Need"). Qualifications? Could combine with Requirements? But we need separate sections only if content. The posting has "What You Will Need" (education, experience). Also "What Would Be Nice To Have" (preferred). Could treat as Qualifications? Or Skills? There's also list of skills: "Strong Market Research Skills Required." etc. Could be Skills section.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive info. So we need to extract:
- Job Family: Strategy & Transformation Consulting
- Travel Required: Up to 25%
- Clearance Required: None
These are metadata; we can fold into a short
maybe under About the role or separate? The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can include a short paragraph with that info.
Now sections:
About the role: The description of Value & Access team and what you will do. Could be a paragraph.
Responsibilities: list from "Common Responsibilities And Expertise Include" bullet points (including the ones with ○). Need to capture all bullet points.
Requirements: "What You Will Need" bullet list (education, experience, etc.)
Qualifications: maybe "What Would Be Nice To Have" could be Qualifications? Or we could treat as "Preferred Qualifications". But we need to decide if we need a Qualifications section. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But they ask to use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can include those that have content. So we can have Requirements (mandatory) and Qualifications (preferred). Skills could be extracted from the bullet points that are skills (like Strong Market Research Skills Required, etc.) but many are already in responsibilities. Might be redundant. Could create Skills section for those skill bullets.
Benefits: list from "Benefits Include" bullet list.
Pay: salary range.
Schedule: none.
We must not create sections with filler. So include only those with content.
Now we need to ensure we don't repeat content. Let's extract.
First, About the role paragraph:
"The Value & Access team provides commercialization strategy and market access services to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. Our client services range from pre-commercialization go-to-market planning to launch value story, pricing, and reimbursement strategies, impacting policies affecting the use and payment of our clients’ novel therapies. You will be responsible for creating and implementing pricing and access strategies for a variety of pharmaceutical assets. This will involve working with senior staff to develop project proposals, managing consulting teams in the development and communication of client deliverables, and maintaining client relationships. Associate Directors oversee multiple projects simultaneously."
That's the prose.
Now Responsibilities bullet list:
From "Common Responsibilities And Expertise Include" we have:
- Oversee development and review of project deliverables to ensure proper framing of strategic issues, use of appropriate methods, and materials are up to client standards.
- Facilitate client presentations and manage client relationships.
- Actively support business development and the project sales cycle.
- Manage and develop staff, including performance management of direct reports.
- Manage project budgets, timelines, and staffing.
- Create corporate- and product-level market access strategies for technologies across multiple stages of the product development cycle.
- Design and manage project teams to execute pharmaceutical market access and pricing strategy projects, both qualitative and quantitative, including overseeing development of materials and facilitating discussions as required.
- ○ Strong Market Research Skills Required.
- ○ Preferred candidates will have experience with various pricing methodologies, including analog assessment, Van Westendorp, Gabor-Granger, and conjoint analysis.
- Design and lead primary interviews with key stakeholders such as payers and KOLs.
- Apply deep experience with: Part A / hospital inpatient pricing and reimbursement. Part B / medical benefit pricing. Part D / contracting. Gross-to-net calculations.
- 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.
Note: The bullet with ○ Strong Market Research Skills Required. and ○ Preferred candidates will have experience... are also skill-related. We could keep them in responsibilities or move to Skills. But we need to avoid duplication. Perhaps keep them in Skills section.
Now Requirements (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.
- Demonstrated project management skills, initiative, resourcefulness, leadership, and ability to think strategically and creatively.
- Keen attention to detail.

- Experience developing, designing, and executing qualitative and quantitative market research.
- Strong verbal and written communication skills. (duplicate? Already have superior written and verbal communication skills; but we keep as is)
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and Outlook.
Note there is duplication of communication skills; we can keep both but maybe combine? But we must preserve all substantive info; duplication is okay but we could deduplicate? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. It doesn't forbid removing duplicates? It says remove duplicated lines. So we should remove duplicated lines. There's "Superior written and verbal communication skills..." and later "Strong verbal and written communication skills." Those are similar but not identical; but they are duplicated concept. Might consider them duplicate and remove one. Safer to keep only one? The instruction: remove duplicated lines. So we should eliminate one of them. Which one is more specific? The first includes "with the ability to clearly communicate clinical and business implications of technically complex products and services." The second is just "Strong verbal and written communication skills." The first is more specific; we can keep the first and drop the second.
Now Qualifications (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.
Now Skills: we could extract skill bullets:
- Strong Market Research Skills Required.
- Preferred candidates will have experience with various pricing methodologies, including analog assessment, Van Westendorp, Gabor-Granger, and conjoint analysis.
- Design and lead primary interviews with key stakeholders such as payers and KOLs.
- Apply deep experience with: Part A / hospital inpatient pricing and reimbursement. Part B / medical benefit pricing. Part D / contracting. Gross-to-net calculations.
- 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.
But many of these overlap with responsibilities. However we can still have a Skills section focusing on technical skills. Might be okay.
