📋 Description

• Set the APAC evidence & access strategy • Define a 3–5 year clinical and economic evidence roadmap for Ion in APAC, linked to clear access, reimbursement, and adoption milestones in priority markets. • Lead design and prioritization of clinical and economic studies (clinical outcomes, RWE, cost effectiveness, budget impact, pathway/resource use) that answer payer, HTA, hospital, and clinical decision-maker questions. • Turn evidence into locally relevant value propositions, dossiers, slide decks, tools, and decision aids for payers, HTA bodies, hospital value committees, and clinical champions. • Develop APAC access plans (e.g., HTA routes, innovation funding, direct payer contracting, hospital funding logic, coding/reimbursement context), and supply the Ion-specific evidence and analytics needed for submissions and negotiations, without owning pricing or commercial terms. • Act as the regional Ion “go-to” for evidence & access. • Build and maintain senior relationships with KOLs, professional societies, payers, HTA agencies, and hospital decision-makers; selectively engage in consultations, guidelines, registries, and collaborative studies that move adoption barriers. • Provide leadership to direct reports and matrixed contributors. Select and manage HEOR/HTA/MA agencies, CROs, and data vendors. Own or co-own budgets and focus spend on initiatives with measurable access and adoption impact. • Define and monitor KPIs (e.g., HTA decisions, time to funding, procedure volume, contribution of evidence programs). Use policy, competitive, and clinical-trend insights to refine the APAC strategy over time.

🎯 Requirements

• Advanced clinical, scientific, or health-economics degree (e.g., MD, PharmD, PhD, MPH, MSc in life sciences, health economics, public health, or related field). • 10+ years’ progressive experience in clinical and economic evidence, HEOR, and/or market access for medical devices or interventional technologies, with significant responsibility across multiple APAC markets. • Proven track record contributing to successful reimbursement or funding outcomes in APAC (e.g., HTA submissions, innovation / pilot funding, coding or reimbursement changes, hospital funding decisions). • Strong understanding of APAC healthcare systems, payer and HTA decision-making, and hospital financing/procurement. • Ability to connect product and procedural details to outcomes, operational impact, and economic value – and to communicate that succinctly to senior clinical and non-clinical stakeholders. • Demonstrated success leading regional or multi-country initiatives and influencing senior leaders in a matrix environment. • Excellent written and verbal communication in English; proficiency in at least one major APAC language (e.g., Japanese, Korean, or Mandarin) strongly preferred.
