About the Role
Are you an experienced professional with a proven track record in delivering HTA projects? Do you excel at building and maintaining client relationships? Are you eager to join a rapidly growing company that offers excellent career prospects? At Costello Medical, we are expanding swiftly due to increasing demand from both new and existing clients. This growth presents outstanding opportunities for candidates with prior industry experience to play a pivotal role in upholding our reputation for quality and contributing to the future development of our team.
As a Senior Analyst, you will take a leading role in managing projects, collaborating with the wider project team to ensure that all projects are delivered to an exceptionally high standard and within agreed timelines. This includes providing strategic advice at the onset of projects, overseeing the project team, and engaging in regular client interactions. Senior Analysts are integral to quality control, conducting reviews of colleagues' work and offering constructive feedback.
Additionally, you will be instrumental in business development by nurturing strong client relationships and identifying opportunities to offer additional services within existing projects. Our HTA division at Costello Medical specialises in delivering HTA submissions, feasibility assessments, and global value dossiers for a diverse clientele, including pharmaceutical and medical device companies, as well as public sector and non-profit organisations. You will collaborate closely with clients to devise HTA strategies from the outset of each project, utilising your excellent written communication skills and scientific expertise to craft clear, evidence-based, strategic narratives that demonstrate the cost-effectiveness of new therapies to the healthcare system.
This role requires the ability to work across different accounts and multiple disease areas, necessitating quick adaptability to new domains. Furthermore, you will have the opportunity to explore the broader range of services provided by other teams at Costello Medical.
Hybrid Working Policy: We recognise that home-working can improve work life balance, reduce commuting times and costs, and provide the opportunity to juggle personal commitments. At the same time, we believe that having face-to-face time in the office holds many benefits and is central to ensuring that the community we have created, where people have a workplace they belong to and feel part of, is never lost.
Therefore, we offer flexible working arrangements that allow our colleagues who have passed probation to work from home for up to half of the time, measured across a 2-week rolling period. During your probationary period (normally the first 6 months of the role) you will be able to work from home for 1 day per week.
