Take your pharmacy expertise in a new direction.

Inizio Engage is delighted to be recruiting to build an exciting new Primary Care Account Specialist team to provide services in support of an AstraZeneca Respiratory programme.

We are particularly interested in hearing from pharmacists looking to bring their clinical expertise into the pharmaceutical industry, as well as those who have already gained commercial or industry experience.

This is a unique opportunity to combine your understanding of medicines, patients and the pharmacy environment with a commercially focused role, building relationships with healthcare professionals and supporting the delivery of improved patient outcomes.

Whether you are an experienced community pharmacist considering your first move into the pharmaceutical industry, or a pharmacist already working in a commercial, field-based or industry role, your clinical credibility and understanding of the evolving role of pharmacy could provide an excellent foundation for success.

AstraZeneca is one of the UK's largest biopharmaceutical companies, with its global headquarters in Cambridge and more than 8,000 colleagues across the UK. Driven by science and innovation, AstraZeneca develops life-changing medicines for patients around the world and works in partnership with the NHS to transform care, improve patient outcomes and advance clinical excellence.

As a Primary Care Account Specialist, you will play an important role in bringing this new team to life, building trusted customer relationships, driving impactful engagement across Primary Care and contributing to better outcomes for patients living with respiratory disease.

So, what will you be doing?
Responsibilities (including but not limited to):

• Support awareness and implementation of evidence-based guidelines and positive market access positioning through compliant account engagement.
• Drive commercial success by delivering against clear commercial and account objectives.
• Identify and develop account opportunities aligned with local healthcare priorities and unmet healthcare needs.
• Build and maintain stakeholder relationships across practices, PCNs and wider local healthcare networks.
• Identify opportunities for approved partnership working and healthcare improvement initiatives.
• Collaborate effectively with cross-functional colleagues, bringing together the right expertise and resources to drive the business.
• Identify opportunities using advance data and digital capabilities.
• Bring strong NHS and market access knowledge, including experience navigating local formularies, guidelines and healthcare pathways.
• Maintain strong clinical and therapy-area expertise to deliver credible, informed customer engagement.
• Operate to the highest standards of compliance, working within AstraZeneca governance, SLAs, SOPs and the ABPI Code of Practice.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a commercially focused pharmacist to play a key role in the launch of an industry leading account specialist team. Bringing clinical credibility, strong commercial acumen and a deep understanding of the NHS, you will identify opportunities, navigate local healthcare priorities and build trusted relationships across your accounts. Combining customer insight with strategic account planning, you will identify opportunities, build stakeholder relationships and deliver effective account plans that support both business objectives and local healthcare priorities.
