Overview

Join our Life Sciences Industry & Enterprise practice to help leading pharma, biotech, and medtech clients define commercial strategy and reinvent how commercial work gets done. This role focuses on leading strategy work across asset / brand strategy, launch, portfolio growth, market access, patient services, functional transformation, operating model, process redesign, and AI/data-enabled reinvention.

What would you do?

As a Manager, you will lead client workstreams that help life sciences organizations make critical commercial decisions - from how to launch and grow assets to how to redesign functions and enterprise ways of working.

Your work could include:

+ Leading asset / brand strategy, launch, portfolio growth, market access, patient services, and broader commercial strategy workstreams

+ Assessing market dynamics, customer needs, competitive landscapes, access considerations, and commercial growth opportunities

+ Translating strategic recommendations into functional or enterprise implications across operating model, process, governance, capability, talent, and technology

+ Identifying where AI, analytics, automation, copilots, or agentic workflows can improve commercial decision-making, execution, or ways of working

+ Facilitating client discussions and synthesizing research, interviews, benchmarks, and data inputs into executive-ready recommendations

In this role you will be expected to:

+ Anticipate risks, dependencies, and shifting client priorities; prepare teams to pivot as programs evolve while keeping delivery focused on outcomes

+ Shape client objectives into clear workplans, hypotheses, analyses, and deliverables

+ Lead workstreams and manage analysts/consultants to produce high-quality, client-ready outputs

+ Manage day-to-day client relationships, including working sessions, feedback, and next steps

+ Apply life sciences commercial knowledge to connect asset, customer, access, functional, and enterprise implications

+ Bring a robust point of view on the "right answer" and shift from executor to advisor

+ Use structured problem solving and storytelling to communicate recommendations clearly and persuasively

+ Define value unlock opportunities by identifying where commercial strategy can drive growth, efficiency, differentiation, or better customer / patient outcomes; shape the value story, KPIs, and implications for leadership decisions

+ Support AI/data-enabled strategy and reinvention work by shaping use cases, workflow fit, required inputs, risks, governance, and human-in-the-loop considerations

+ Support proactive commercial strategy / reinvention opportunities and proposals by shaping the client problem, workplan, solution approach, and value story

+ Contribute to thought capital by developing reusable perspectives, frameworks, case examples, and market-facing points of view on priority commercial topics

Growth Opportunities

You will continue to grow through:

+ Leading high-priority commercial strategy and reinvention work for senior life sciences leaders

+ Building breadth across asset, function, and enterprise commercial strategy topics

+ Developing expertise in AI/data-enabled commercial strategy and future ways of working

+ Partnering across Accenture teams to bring together strategy, technology, analytics, operations, and industry expertise

+ Coaching analysts and consultants into future life sciences strategy practitioners
