Job Title: Director, Value & Access
Location: Waltham, MA \ Conshohocken, PA
About the Role
The Director, Value & Access will lead the development of strategic, evidence-based payer value communication tools that support access and reimbursement for Madrigal Pharmaceuticals’ therapies in Metabolic Dysfunction-associated Steatohepatitis (MASH). This role translates complex clinical, economic, and real-world evidence into compelling value propositions for U.S. payers—across Commercial, Medicare, and Medicaid channels—while ensuring alignment with brand positioning and field execution strategies.
A key responsibility of this role is to develop and adapt value communication resources to meet the specific needs of the Key Account Director (KAD) and Regional Account Director (RAD) teams. This includes crafting tailored materials—such as payer value decks, cost-impact claims, and summary tools—that reflect the differentiated value of Rezdiffra in IDNs, GI super groups, and regional managed care organizations. By aligning content with local market dynamics, formulary criteria, and institutional drivers, the Director will enable both KADs and RADs to effectively communicate value and support account-level pull-through.
The Director will work cross-functionally with Market Access, Brand Marketing, HEOR, and Field Access teams to ensure value messages are consistent, credible, and responsive to evolving payer scrutiny, policy shifts, and competitive pressures. This role is critical to maintaining Rezdiffra’s leadership position by enabling internal stakeholders to deliver tailored, high-impact access communications across customer archetypes.
