Our client is a leading medical device company with a rapidly advancing continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) product portfolio. The Health Economics and Outcomes Research (HEOR) team identifies, plans, and executes post-market real-world evidence (RWE) and health economics studies to demonstrate the clinical and economic value of its products and support global healthcare system access.
The team is seeking a hands‑on HEOR Consultant to support a broad and evolving portfolio of research initiatives. This consultant will contribute to health economic modeling, real-world data analysis, health outcomes research, and scientific publications. Assignments may include analyzing medical claims data, developing or adapting cost-effectiveness models for international markets, supporting reimbursement and health technology assessment submissions, and contributing to multiple smaller projects as business needs evolve.
This is a project-based, flexible role requiring someone who can work independently, manage shifting priorities, and collaborate effectively with a cross-functional team.
