Senior Manager, Government Pricing

Baxter•Deerfield, IL

1d•$136,000 - $187,000•Remote

About The Position

This is a high-impact leadership role at the center of Baxter’s most complex and strategically important government pricing and compliance initiatives. Because Baxter operates across pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and equipment, the government pricing environment is uniquely intricate — from unbundling requirements to multi-agency reporting across CMS, HRSA, VA, DoD, and numerous state programs. As the Senior Manager, you’ll bring clarity and structure to that complexity. You’ll lead pricing methodology, manage external partners responsible for pricing calculations, guide regulatory interpretation, and advise Commercial, Finance, Legal, Marketing, and senior leadership on the downstream impact of pricing and contracting decisions. You’ll also own the finance partnership, working closely with revenue accounting to manage reserves, monitor long-standing accruals, and prepare the organization for emerging legislative and IRA-related changes. You’ll join a team led by an experienced, well-respected leader who has grown her career within Baxter and understands this role deeply. It’s an exciting moment to step in, as the organization is undergoing meaningful transformation and your perspective will help shape how the function evolves. This is a remote position based in the United States.
