Role Overview

HTA Analysts in the IQVIA Global Health Economics and HTA team work flexibly across HEOR projects with an interest in developing as a specialist consultant in HTA strategy and implementation.

The primary focus of this role is on UK HTA, supporting submissions and engagements with agencies such as NICE and the SMC, although there is flexibility to work on other types of products and geographies should the opportunity arise. Analysts support the team in HTA and HEOR project delivery, with the opportunity to support business development.

Key responsibilities include:

• Develop materials and services relating to UK HTA and HEOR project delivery with support from other team members where appropriate (i.e., components of HTA offerings, such as dossier writing, supporting early HTA scientific advice, HTA landscape reviews, literature reviews, health economic model development and adaptations, submission support, and pricing negotiation support, among others)

• Contribute to multi-country HTA and other HEOR projects as opportunities arise, broadening experience across different markets and product types

• Develop strategic HTA knowledge and skills, with a particular emphasis on UK HTA processes and requirements, through collaboration with the internal project team and the client team, as well as following trainings provided by IQVIA

• Work within and across internal IQVIA teams, including technical consultants responsible for studies generating HTA evidence and complementary functions such as Market Access, Patient-Centered Solutions, HTA Accelerator Solutions, database studies and local teams across the global network

• Support thought leadership for HTA topics, such as preparing conference abstracts and posters, supporting development of white papers on HTA and guiding interns working with the team on HTA-focused thesis topics

• Develop knowledge of the team's global HTA and HEOR offerings to support business development opportunities

The demand for IQVIA's HTA offerings has seen dramatic increases over the past two years and will continue to expand in response to evolving HTA processes globally, including the growing importance of UK HTA. The role of the Analyst in HTA is an entry-level role with training opportunities to specialise in strategic HTA and develop into more senior roles within the team.

The role is based in either Spain, Greece, Portugal or South Africa, with flexibility regarding frequency of office and home working. Please refer to our diversity and inclusion statement for further information.
