Addlestone

FULL TIME

August 3, 2024

At Astellas we are a progressive health partner, delivering value and outcomes where needed.
We pursue innovative science, focussing initially on the areas of greatest potential and then developing solutions where patient need is high, often in rare or under-served disease areas and in life-threatening or life-limiting diseases and conditions.
We work directly with patients, doctors and health care professionals on the front line to ensure patient and clinical needs are guiding our development activities at every stage.
Our global vision for Patient Centricity is to support the development of innovative health solutions through a deep understanding of the patient experience. At Astellas, Patient Centricity isn’t a buzzword - it’s a guiding principle for action. We believe all staff have a role to play in creating a patient-centric culture and integrating an awareness of the patient into our everyday working practices, regardless of our role, team or division.
We work closely with regulatory authorities and payers to find new ways to ensure access to new therapies. We deliver the latest insights and real-world evidence to inform the best decisions for patients and their care-givers, to ensure the medicines we develop continue to provide meaningful outcomes.
Beyond medicines, we support our stakeholder communities to drive initiatives that improve awareness, education, access and ultimately standards of care.
The opportunity:
Your role as a Key Account Manager, Urology, in your designated territory for specialist brands is pivotal to our success. Working collaboratively with cross-functional teams, you will formulate local account plans to enhance advocacy, improve access, and boost the adoption of our specialized products. Engaging with various healthcare stakeholders, including payers and professionals, is crucial to ensure the availability of our specialty brands. Your mission involves breaking down local barriers, facilitating access, and creating more opportunities for prescribing in key accounts.
Additionally, you will take charge of seamlessly integrating our specialty brands into NHS services. This entails influencing local pathways, guidelines, and treatment protocols. Transforming valuable NHS insights into actionable strategies, you'll expedite the growth of local accounts. As the Key Account Manager, you'll implement cross-functional tactics to establish a prescribing environment that positions our specialty brands early in the treatment paradigm.
Your ultimate objectives include driving product usage across the health economy, implementing positive protocols and guidelines at the local level, and achieving sales targets while expanding market share in your assigned accounts. Another crucial aspect of your role is developing clinical advocates aligned with Astellas' vision. Collaborating with NHS localities, you'll contribute to devising innovative solutions that benefit patients, the NHS, and Astellas. Your efforts contribute to a triple win for all parties involved.
At Astellas, we recognise that our employees enjoy having a balance between their professional and home lives. We are proud of our hybrid approach which empowers you to have flexibility on whether to work from home or in the office.
You will be part of an inclusive team that works to develop innovative therapies for patients.
