Janssen (part of the Johnson & Johnson family of companies) is one of the world’s leading research-based pharmaceutical companies, with operations throughout the world and employing more than 6000 people in the UK. The company develops and markets innovative, high-quality pharmaceutical products and services aimed at improving quality of life for people with medical needs across the world that create a real difference for patients.

Due to the continued success of their commercial operation in the UK, they are creating a number of exciting secondment opportunities within the Market Access Team.
As a Healthcare Economy Liaison Manager (HELM), you will take responsibility for Market Access work with specific products from their portfolio which includes infectious diseases (Hepatitis C), oncology and mental health. The major focus of this team is to deliver accelerated, optimal market access for existing and new products. You will be responsible for developing relationships with payers and positioning Janssen as a trusted expert and partner. You will be developing local strategy and customer engagement plans with your local team which focus on achieving optimal funding and access for our product portfolio.

Teamwork is an essential competency for this role and examples of leading teams and building strong trusting relationships is a pre-requisite for success in this role.

Your role will be to engage with key customers, NHS policy makers and NHS decision making processes in a timely and appropriate manner in order to facilitate optimal and accelerated market access. By systematically developing customer networks and local market access strategies from an early stage in a product’s lifecycle, you will ensure that you have the right clinical evidence, communicated to the right customer at the right time to deliver successful market access. This role demands personal flexibility and the ability to self direct when required to respond appropriately to the challenging and changing demands of the role.
Working across a number of products / indications at different stages of their lifecycle, you will demonstrate to NHS decision-makers how your products add value to the target patient population at a cost effective price.

Janssen would be keen to hear from candidates who have a demonstrable record of developing partnerships and delivering high quality outcomes through effective project management. An understanding of the NHS decision-making, funding and approval processes is vital along with the ability to create “win win” situations with your key customers through the development of joint agendas.

You will also be an innovative and creative thinker with the ability to understand complex business challenges. A willingness and aptitude to develop negotiation, project management and health outcomes skills are all prerequisites.

Our client is keen to speak to candidates who have worked in a similar role within the pharmaceutical industry. They are also interested in attracting NHS professionals who have worked in a payer environment and have a desire to pursue a career in the private sector. Whatever your background, you must have the maturity and integrity to deal on a partnership level with senior NHS customers.

If you wish to join an organisation which aims to reach their values through organisational excellence, commitment to a high-performing culture, advanced medical education approaches, a decentralised structure, and, last but not least, strong customer focus, please contact our recruitment partners at North 51 for more information and a confidential discussion about the role.
