Do you want to grow your career with a truly employee focussed company with exceptional work life balance working in a cutting-edge industry, where you can develop globally valued skills and apply your quantitative skills to improving healthcare?
If so, BresMed is offering an exciting opportunity to join a training-focused team, where you will have the opportunity to gain an MSc qualification at a leading UK university whilst developing as a professional consulting health economist.
What is Health Economics?
Health economics is a rapidly developing and increasingly important field due to aging populations and the increasing burden of healthcare. The tools developed by health economists are widely used for evaluating the clinical and economic value of drugs and devices. This process requires economists, statisticians and clinical writers with a capacity for finding creative solutions to challenging problems. Solving such problems necessitates statistical and health economic expertise, as well as an in-depth understanding of the theoretical frameworks employed to assess value in a healthcare setting.
About BresMed:
BresMed is a health economic and outcomes research (HEOR) consultancy that works with pharmaceutical companies and medical device manufacturers, helping them demonstrate the clinical and economic value of their products to governments and other healthcare payers and providers.
Everything we do is grounded in our three company principles: Fulfilled Team, Delighted Clients and Thriving Business.
Why BresMed?
Over that past 15 years we’ve grown to employ over 160 people in the UK, India, Ireland, the Netherlands and the US. As we’ve grown, our commitment to scientific rigor, innovation, employee wellbeing and client success has been unrelenting. Our office dynamic is intellectually stimulating and focused on delivering excellence within a vibrant culture where everybody matters.
We firmly believe that we all have a valuable contribution to make and closely support each other to build a career that suits our skills and personal interests. Many of us joined as graduates and have grown into senior roles.
Your Role
We are looking for two budding Health Economists to join our Health Economics Analysis Team (HEAT), which currently consists of around 50 people across our locations globally. HEAT team members work closely with other economists, statisticians and clinical writers, and we pride ourselves on our ability to find creative and technically robust solutions to challenging problems. Our team focus is on demonstrating the economic value of a product. This is achieved either through the production and communication of original health economic models or through the review, critique and adaptation of models that are developed in-house by pharmaceutical companies, within academia or by other consulting firms.
Your responsibilities:
The core focus of your work will be developing economic models to demonstrate what would happen to patients on a new health technology (drug, device or diagnostic technique, etc.). This is achieved by modelling their costs and clinical outcomes in relation to existing treatments. The job is varied because every model is different, and your role will depend on your skills and interests, but most projects will require you to:
