**Job Title:** Global Market Access and Pricing Early Neurology

**Location** : Cambridge, MA, Morristown, NJ

About the Job

Neurology is an area of innovation and growth within specialty care, with significant unmet needs and market potential. Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs), especially Alzheimer’s disease (ALZ), represent a major growth opportunity, with the market expected to reach ~€13 billion by 2030.

In addition to pioneering Multiple Sclerosis treatments (tolebrutinib in pre-launch phase, frexalimab in Phase 3 clinical development) and expanding into CIDP (riliprubart in Phase 3), the Sanofi Neurology Franchise is building a robust pipeline for neurodegenerative diseases. We are pursuing a multi-pronged strategy focusing on tau and neuro-immune targets for ALZ while also exploring opportunities in other NDDs such as Parkinson’s disease and Multiple System Atrophy.

To strengthen our early-stage neurology portfolio, we are engaging with external assets and technologies. We have made progress over the last year by engaging with several promising external early-stage assets (e.g. equity investments into Vigil Neuroscience and Ventyx Biosciences, license agreement to the anticlastic platform from Alloy Therapeutics for use in development of an ALZ target).

The Global Market Access and Pricing (GMAP) Early Neurology Lead will be responsible for driving the early price and access assessment and value generation strategy of pipeline assets, with focus on neurodegenerative diseases. He/she will drive pricing and access analytics and strategy development, as well as champion the one-voice market access perspective within Global Project Teams. This will include providing price and market access input to inform indication selection, clinical development plans at various stages, broader payer data generation efforts, forecasts/business cases. The scope of work will include both internal assets and external business development opportunities. It may also expand beyond NDDs to include other neurology areas such as pain, narcolepsy.

This is a highly strategic and collaborative role that requires a strong cross-functional approach. The GMAP Lead will be a core member of Global Project / New Product Planning (NPP) Teams and work closely with a range of functions and business partners such as NPP, Clinical, Medical, HEVA, Regulatory, Public Affairs, as well as key countries, to fully realize the pricing and access potential of Sanofi’s early portfolio in neurodegenerative diseases.

We are an innovative global healthcare company, committed to transforming the lives of people with immune challenges, rare diseases and blood disorders, cancers, and neurological disorders. From R&D to sales, our talented teams work together, revolutionizing treatment, continually improving products, understanding unmet needs, and connecting communities. We chase the miracles of science every single day, pursuing progress to make a real impact on millions of patients around the world.​
