Senior Market Access Manager

Drive change. Shape policy. Improve outcomes across wound-care services.

We are working with a market-leading wound-care organisation to appoint a Senior Market Access professional to lead strategic engagement and drive meaningful change across health systems in Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.

This is not a traditional sales role. It is an opportunity for someone who understands the clinical, policy and population-health challenges within wound-care and can bring multiple stakeholders together to redesign services, improve patient pathways and demonstrate value at a system level.

You will build and navigate complex, multi-layered stakeholder networks – from Clinical Directors, Medical Directors, Medicines Management and Health Board leads through to Tissue Viability Nurse (TVN) Leads and frontline clinical teams.

You will:

• Develop strong, senior-level relationships across Health Boards and wider healthcare systems.
• Identify opportunities to influence policy, population health and wound-care service provision.
• Lead conversations around value, outcomes and health economics, rather than simply product or sales targets.
• Support clinical stakeholders through change and service transformation, using your understanding of wound-care and clinical pathways.
• Drive service redesign where there is an opportunity to improve patient outcomes, efficiency and use of healthcare resources.
• Develop and manage complex stakeholder maps across clinical, operational, medicines management and strategic decision-makers.
• Engage with senior clinical and healthcare leaders, translating clinical challenges into compelling system-level solutions.
• Work collaboratively with internal clinical, market access, commercial and medical teams.
• Represent the organisation at a strategic level, including policy and Government-level lobbying and engagement where appropriate.
• Identify emerging policy and healthcare priorities and translate these into opportunities to influence the future of wound-care services.

You will bring a strong combination of wound-care knowledge, clinical credibility and strategic market access experience.

We are particularly interested in people who have:

• Established relationships with Health Boards and senior healthcare stakeholders.
• A strong understanding of wound-care, tissue viability and clinical pathways.
• Experience influencing stakeholders through change, transformation or service redesign.
• The ability to engage credibly with everyone from TVN Leads through to Medical Directors and senior system leaders.
• Experience working within population health, policy, market access, healthcare transformation or strategic clinical engagement.
• The ability to understand different stakeholder priorities and build a compelling case for change.
• Strong communication, influencing and relationship-building skills.
• A genuine interest in improving patient outcomes and healthcare delivery, rather than being driven solely by sales performance.

Experience across Scotland, Northern Ireland and/or the Republic of Ireland is essential.

Why this role?

This is an opportunity to move beyond the traditional commercial model and have a genuine influence on how wound-care services are designed and delivered.

You will be working at the intersection of clinical practice, policy, population health and healthcare transformation, influencing decisions that can have a much wider impact than an individual product or account.

If you are a strategic wound-care professional who enjoys bringing people together, challenging existing pathways and creating the case for better ways of working, this could be an excellent opportunity to make a much broader impact.
