Summary:
The Associate Director, U.S. Health Systems Analytics will lead complex analytics and strategic decision-support workstreams that help Bristol Myers Squibb understand how U.S. pricing, payer, reimbursement, and health policy dynamics may affect portfolio planning, pricing, patient access, budget impact, and business decisions.
This role will focus on high-priority U.S. pricing and access topics, including the Inflation Reduction Act, Medicare and Medicaid reforms, PBM reform, government payer and pricing dynamics, broader payer / reimbursement changes, and policy-driven access issues. The ideal candidate will bring a strong understanding of the U.S. health system, along with the ability to translate policy, payer, pricing, financial, and commercial inputs into practical business implications.
As a senior analytical partner to the business, the Associate Director will help frame complex business questions, lead major modeling efforts, integrate insights across workstreams, and develop clear recommendations for senior leadership. The role requires someone who can move beyond analysis alone to shape the answer, clarify tradeoffs, and support better decision-making across priority U.S. pricing and access issues.

Lead complex U.S.-focused analytical workstreams and develop analytical recommendations that inform pricing, access, payer, portfolio, and health policy decisions across the BMS portfolio.
Frame senior leadership questions, define the analytical approach, and ensure outputs clearly address the business decision, tradeoffs, risks, and recommended path forward.
Integrate U.S. policy, payer, pricing, market access, financial, and commercial inputs into clear implications and recommendations for senior leadership.
Lead IRA-related analytics, including timing of impact, asset-level and portfolio-level exposure, pricing sensitivity analyses, budget implications, and senior leadership materials.
Lead major U.S. modeling efforts, including defining model objectives, key assumptions, analytical structure, outputs, and governance to assess portfolio exposure, budget impact, timing, pricing implications, and strategic options.
Monitor and analyze U.S. payer, reimbursement, and government pricing developments, while partnering with Policy Analytics on broader policy monitoring and ownership boundaries.
Pressure-test assumptions, models, outputs, and recommendations to ensure analytical rigor, business relevance, and consistency with the Global Health Systems Analytics decision framework.
Advance scalable analytical standards, documentation, quality-control processes, and governance approaches that improve consistency, speed, and decision quality across U.S. analytics workstreams.
Guide more junior colleagues, consultants, and vendors as needed, reinforcing strong analytical standards, clear communication, and high-quality execution.

On-site Protocol
BMS has an occupancy structure that determines where an employee is required to conduct their work. This structure includes site-essential, site-by-design, field-based and remote-by-design jobs. The occupancy type that you are assigned is determined by the nature and responsibilities of your role:
Site-essential roles require 100% of shifts onsite at your assigned facility. Site-by-design roles may be eligible for a hybrid work model with at least 50% onsite at your assigned facility. For these roles, onsite presence is considered an essential job function and is critical to collaboration, innovation, productivity, and a positive Company culture. For field-based and remote-by-design roles the ability to physically travel to visit customers, patients or business partners and to attend meetings on behalf of BMS as directed is an essential job function.
