About The Position

CSL's organization is accelerating innovation to deliver greater impact for patients. With a project-led structure and a focus on collaboration, we’re building a future-ready team that thrives in dynamic biotech ecosystems. Joining CSL now means being part of an agile team committed to developing therapies that make a meaningful difference worldwide. Could you be our next Senior Director National Accounts? The job is fully remote and does require 50% travel. You will report to the Executive Director, Market Access Accounts. You will have responsibility for maintaining open commercial formulary access for inline portfolio products & achieving access for launch brands. You will develop relationships with key external customers working through an account team deployed against national accounts. With an expanded effort into an increasingly influential public sector (e.g., Medicaid), knowledge of state-specific dynamics, formulary management activities and the ability to maintain access will also be critical. Solid leadership for the account management direct reports as well as collaboration across Market Access Accounts, Strategic Pricing and Contracting, Marketing, Sales, Finance, Legal and Operations will be essential for success. You will work closely with the US Market Access team to develop plans of action and educate key internal stakeholders on appropriate channel strategies aligned with brand business objectives. Cross-functional leadership related to payor RFPs, including effective engagement at pricing committee reviews is an important aspect of the role. You will ensure that the voice of the CSL customer is represented in all brand or portfolio business opportunities.
