• Keep well-informed about latest global payer, HTA and health policy evolvements and HEOR methodological evolvements.
• Effectively lead and manage scientifically rigorous HEOR studies and associated budget from concept through full execution, including reporting the evidence at scientific congresses, in peer reviewed publications, and promotional/proactive/reactive BMS communication tools.
• Train BMS matrix team and field teams (e.g., fHEOR, MSLs, Account Executives, sales team) on HEOR evidence as appropriate.
• Strive to demonstrate BMS values of integrity, passion, urgency, innovation, accountability and inclusion.

Qualifications:
