• Interrogate economic model structures and assumptions, including treatment-effect duration, subsequent therapies, utilities, costs and uncertainty.
• Assess comparative evidence, including indirect treatment comparisons, and its implications for the UK reimbursement case.
• Work with evidence specialists to develop and justify proposed UK base-case assumptions, scenario analyses and responses to appraisal challenges.
• Define UK evidence requirements and agree supporting deliverables and timelines with regional and global colleagues.
• Lead preparation of integrated responses to clinical and economic appraisal questions, drawing on specialist contributors to explain and defend the evidence.

Pricing, reimbursement and NHS access

• Develop pricing and reimbursement scenarios and recommendations with the Head of Market Access and Pricing, including the implications of evidence uncertainty.
• Support payer negotiations and proposed access arrangements within delegated authority, preparing analyses for established pricing and commercial approval processes.

Collaboration and capability building

• Partner across Commercial, Medical, Regulatory, CORE, Global Market Access and Corporate Affairs to deliver UK access priorities.
