Position Overview:

Associate Consultants are responsible for conducting a variety of analyses across multiple "big data" platforms to generate quantitative summaries, insights, and recommendations that address key business questions for our clients. Associate Consultants typically start their new role under the guidance of more senior team members but are quickly expected to contribute to all aspects of client engagements. In their first two years with the practice, Associate Consultants are expected to assume an active managerial role running workstreams and mentoring more junior colleagues. The analytical rigor, attention to detail, and creativity of our Associate Consultants' work is critical to the success of our engagement teams and our practice as a whole.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Execute high-quality, logical, and timely strategic analysis using a wide range of 'big data" assets (IQVIA and external) to derive trends, conclusions, and actionable recommendations for clients
  • Take ownership of discrete analyses or workstreams and conduct secondary (and occasionally primary) research on markets, payers, physicians, patients, and competitive products to support key findings for client engagements
  • Actively participate in internal brainstorming sessions, collaborate with project team, and exercise informed business judgement in identifying the best approach to address key client needs
  • Develop sophisticated predictive models to inform contracting strategies, patient cost and affordability programs, prescriber / product utilization, and brand performance / financial modeling
  • Translate analyses into thorough and insightful conclusions and outputs to address client issues and succinctly deliver these conclusions to clients via reports, presentations, and other engagement tools
  • Present deliverables to clients via teleconference and in face-to-face meetings and foster professional relationships with members of the client team
  • Manage upward by communicating progress and challenges, request guidance when needed, present potential solutions, and identify next steps
  • Develop deep knowledge of the healthcare industry and consulting methodologies
  • Assist with recruiting new team members and participate in the interview process


An ideal candidate will have:
  • 1-2 years of work experience in consulting, data analytics, or other relevant areas within the life sciences industry
  • A strong academic record (GPA 3.5/4 or higher), excellent problem-solving abilities, exceptional communication skills, strong quantitative skills, and be a proven team contributor
  • An interest in and desire to learn about the constantly evolving healthcare industry
  • Good project management, time management and organizational skills
  • Excellent conversational and business English (written and oral)
  • Exceptional IT literacy e.g. Word, PowerPoint, Excel (SQL is a plus)
  • A willingness to travel as needed (10% on average)


The potential base pay range for this role, when annualized, is $65,400.00 - $163,600.00. The actual base pay offered may vary based on a number of factors including job-related qualifications such as knowledge, skills, education, and experience; location; and/or schedule (full or part-time). Dependent on the position offered, incentive plans, bonuses, and/or other forms of compensation may be offered, in addition to a range of health and welfare and/or other benefits.
