About Avalere Health
United by one profound purpose: to reach EVERY PATIENT POSSIBLE. At Avalere Health, we ensure every patient is identified, treated, supported, and cared for. Equally. Our Advisory, Medical, and Marketing teams come together – powerfully and intentionally – to forge unconventional connections, building a future where healthcare is not a barrier and no patient is left behind.
Achieving our mission starts with providing enriching, purpose-driven careers for our team that empower them to make a tangible impact on patient lives. We are committed to creating a culture where our employees are empowered to bring their whole selves to work and tap into the power of diverse backgrounds and skillsets to play a part in making a difference for every patient, everywhere.
Our flexible approach to working allows our global teams to decide where they want to work, whether in-office or at home based on team and client need. Major city hubs in London, Manchester, Washington, D.C., and New York, and smaller offices globally, serve as collaboration hubs allowing our teams to come together when it matters. Homeworkers are equally supported, with dedicated social opportunities and resources.
Our inclusive culture is at the heart of everything we do. We proudly support our employees in bringing their whole selves to work with our six Employee Network Groups – Diverse Ability, Family, Gender, LGBTQ+, Mental Health, and Race/Ethnicity. These groups provide opportunities to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion and to connect, learn, and socialise through regular meetings and programs of activity. We are an accredited Fertility Friendly employer with our Fertility Policy, enhanced parental leave, and culture of flexibility ensuring every employee feels supported across their family planning journey and can work in a way that suits their family’s needs.
We are deeply invested in supporting professional growth for our employees through day-to-day career experiences, access to thousands of on-demand training sessions, regular career conversations, and the opportunity for global, cross-capability career moves.
We take pride in being part of the Disability Confident Scheme. This helps make sure you can be interviewed fairly if you have a disability, long term health condition, or are neurodiverse. If you'd like to apply and need adjustments made, you can let us know in your application.
*This is a REMOTE work opportunity*
Avalere’s policy practice is seeking a Principal with a primary focus on Medicare Part B, physician-administered drugs, and the 340B program. Expertise in oncology policy is a plus. This role is ideal for a policy professional who enjoys developing creative solutions to complex problems, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and values close collaboration with highly motivated and knowledgeable colleagues.
The policy practice addresses a broad range of issues, including federal and state drug pricing policy discussions; Medicare Advantage and Medicare Part B and D policy and payment; evolving benefit design and coverage in public and private payers; Medicaid; and other state health policies. The team applies deep subject-matter expertise and a strong understanding of client business challenges to assess how policy changes affect pharmaceutical manufacturers, managed care plans, providers, pharmacies, PBMs, and consumers. The practice delivers analytic support and advisory services, including legislative strategy, regulatory analysis, and quantitative modeling of proposed and enacted policies.

What you'll do

  • Serve as a subject-matter expert on Medicare Part B, physician-administered drug policy, and related drug pricing issues affecting the pharmaceutical, biotech, health insurance, pharmacy, and PBM sectors.
  • Develop strategic and tactical recommendations aligned with client policy and business objectives.
  • Lead multiple complex engagements from proposal development through delivery, including shaping project scope, assembling cross-functional teams, and overseeing execution with minimal oversight.
  • Contribute to practice goals related to sales, revenue growth, and project management.
  • Create and execute business development plans and participate in firmwide strategic planning discussions.
  • Supervise, train, and mentor staff within the practice and across the firm.
  • Produce thought leadership that elevates both personal expertise and the practice’s market profile.

About you

  • Education Requirements
  • Bachelor’s degree in health policy, public policy, healthcare management, public health, public administration, economics, business administration, or a related discipline.
  • Skill Requirements
  • Significant experience analyzing legislation, regulation, and policy proposals and communicating insights to clients and public audiences.
  • Strong understanding of healthcare policy, market dynamics, and the interaction between federal and state policy.
  • Experience managing and supervising staff.
  • Demonstrated situational leadership and the ability to motivate colleagues across levels.
  • Excellent interpersonal skills and a collaborative, team-oriented mindset.
  • Advanced analytical and problem-solving capabilities, with the ability to communicate complex methodologies and findings clearly.
  • Ability to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced, intellectually rigorous environment.
  • Advanced proficiency in Microsoft PowerPoint, Excel, Teams, and Word.

Experience requirements

  • 7+ years of relevant experience, including roles in biotech, health insurance, trade associations, advocacy organizations, Capitol Hill, the executive branch, or professional advisory services.
  • Experience in financial services or professional services focused on healthcare may substitute for direct industry experience.
  • Deep expertise in Medicare Part B, physician-administered drug reimbursement, the 340B Program, the Inflation Reduction Act, and related drug pricing reforms.
  • Oncology policy expertise preferred.
  • Prior project management experience with strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to present complex concepts to executive audiences.
