Job description

At Verona Pharma, we are passionate about transforming the lives of millions of people living with chronic respiratory diseases. With our first product now approved by the US FDA, we’re just getting started. Our innovative respiratory pipeline targets a range of conditions, including non-CF bronchiectasis, cystic fibrosis (CF), and asthma, driven by a commitment to bringing relief to patients navigating the challenges of progressive respiratory conditions.

Joining Verona means being part of a forward-thinking team that’s redefining what’s possible in drug development and commercialization.

To be successful in this role, you must transform data, both qualitative and quantitative, into clear and actionable insight. You will work closely with patient services, marketing, sales operations, IT, finance, and other stakeholders to support strategic and tactical decision-making through the delivery of analytics that informs key issues and customer needs for sales & market access.

• Support Business Strategy: Assist with HCP segmentation, territory planning, targeting, and business planning.
• Leverage Analytics & Market Research: Use advanced analytics and market research to inform strategic decisions.
• Drive Commercial Culture & Innovation: Foster a competitive, insights-driven culture and challenge the status quo.
• Other duties as assigned.

What You Bring:

• Education & Experience: Bachelor’s degree required; equivalent education/experience may be considered.
• Sales & Commercial Operations: 2-3 years in sales operations or 1+ year in pharma, with experience in analytics, reporting, and business planning.
• Analytical & BI Skills: Strong qualitative and quantitative analytical skills, with expertise in BI platforms (Power BI preferred).
