- Build, review, and pressure-test drug launch curves, including uptake trajectories, market penetration, peak share, and time-to-peak assumptions.
- Evaluate whether commercial forecasting assumptions are realistic and supported by appropriate evidence.
- Assess the use of analog products, launch ramps, peak sales expectations, competitive dynamics, and loss-of-exclusivity considerations.
- Identify overly optimistic, conservative, or unsupported assumptions within commercial forecasts.
- Apply commercial forecasting expertise across a defined set of pharmaceutical launches and therapeutic areas.
- Provide clear, evidence-based reasoning for conclusions and recommendations.

- 5+ years of professional experience in pharmaceutical commercial forecasting, analytics, commercial strategy, or a closely related field.
- Experience working in pharma commercial organizations, including sales, forecasting, analytics, market strategy, or launch planning.
- Strong familiarity with biotech and pharmaceutical development programs.
- Hands-on experience building, reviewing, or critiquing drug launch, uptake, or sales forecasting models.
- Understanding of key commercial forecasting concepts, including market sizing, patient uptake, analog selection, market share, launch ramp, peak penetration, and loss of exclusivity.
- Strong analytical and critical-thinking skills with the ability to distinguish defensible assumptions from unsupported estimates.
- Excellent written communication skills and the ability to clearly explain commercial forecasting judgments.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience supporting pharmaceutical product launches or pre-launch commercial planning.
- Background in pharma sales, commercial analytics, forecasting, or business strategy.
- Experience evaluating competitive landscapes, market dynamics, and product positioning.
- Familiarity with forecasting methodologies, launch analogs, scenario analysis, and revenue modeling.
