Our work is particularly differentiated in oncology and rare diseases, where:
Pricing and access decisions are highly scrutinised

Strategic choices have significant patient and commercial implications
As part of Prescient, we now deliver fully integrated strategy across Commercial, Medical, Competitive Strategy and Access, helping clients maximise asset value across the entire product life cycle.
This is a unique opportunity to join a specialist, strategy-led access team within a broader, market-leading consultancy platform.

As an Associate Consultant, you will support the delivery of high-quality, insight-led strategy projects for global biopharma clients, developing your skills across research, analysis and strategic communication under the guidance of senior colleagues.
You will contribute to teams working on critical questions such as:
How should a novel oncology asset be positioned for optimal reimbursement?
What evidence is required to support value in rare diseases?
How can pricing strategy be optimised across global markets?
What are the payer risks and how can they be mitigated early?
Your time will be broadly split across:
~80% project delivery
~20% capability building, internal initiatives and professional development
You'll be part of a fast-growing, PE-backed organisation, where you will gain hands-on exposure to client work, start to build your expertise in value, pricing and access strategy, and develop your career within a supportive and expert team.
