Hybrid 2/3 day in office, South East UK | Competitive Package | Global Pharma Leader

We’re working with a well-known Pharma client, a company recognised for its commitment to innovation and patient outcomes, as they look to appoint a Senior Pricing & Contracting Manager to lead pricing strategy across the UK & Ireland.

• Shaping and executing pricing and contracting strategies to ensure early and sustainable access at commercially viable prices.
• Leading cross-functional discussions across local and corporate teams to embed pricing into broader brand and access strategies.
• Driving innovative contracting models that reflect the evolving payor landscape, including risk-sharing and value-based approaches.
• Contributing to UK & Ireland pricing strategy development, including policy shaping aligned with Human Pharma and global corporate goals.
• Influencing internal and external stakeholders using a strong grasp of Gross-to-Net models, market access dynamics, and healthcare system levers like VPAG and IPHA frameworks.

What We’re Looking For:

• Substantial experience in pharma pricing – either in-house or consultancy.
• Proven track record in launch pricing strategy (minimum of 2 products, including one pipeline asset).
• Strong understanding of innovative pricing methodologies and lifecycle strategy, including LoE and tendering.
• Analytical, commercially astute and confident influencing at all levels in a matrix environment.
• Clear communicator, capable of translating complex pricing data into actionable strategy.
