 About the Role: The Senior Director, Global Managed Access Programs, Strategy & Operations will provide strategic and operational leadership for the development and execution of Neurocrine's global Managed Access Programs (MAP) (eg, early access, post-trial access, name patient sales, etc.), enabling appropriate access to Neurocrine medicines for patients in countries where traditional commercial access is not yet available or is not planned. This individual will serve as the enterprise leader for managed access strategy and execution, bringing together Medical Affairs, Lifecycle Management, Market Access, Commercial, Regulatory Affairs, Pharmacovigilance, Quality, Technical Operations/Supply Chain, Legal, Compliance, Finance and other partners to determine where and how MAP should be implemented across the Neurocrine portfolio. The Senior Director will be accountable for translating asset and lifecycle strategy into scalable, compliant and operationally executable access pathways across countries. The Senior Director will support managed access planning across the product lifecycle (eg, Early/Expanded Access Programs, Single/Named Patient Access, cohort programs, Post-Trial Access, and other pre- and post-approval access pathways, as appropriate). The role will lead the selection, oversight and governance of external partners responsible for program administration, regulatory coordination, distribution and other access services, while ensuring Neurocrine maintains appropriate strategic oversight, decision-making and accountability.
