Job Description

Location/Division Specific Information

Our multidisciplinary Modelling and Simulation experts design and implement health economic models that describe complex medical processes to understand and evaluate the implications of clinical trials; demonstrate the value of interventions beyond efficacy, and assess benefits, risks, and the economic consequences associated with healthcare interventions.

This role offers 100% remote working flexibility.

Discover Impactful Work:

If you have a passion for health economic modeling to conduct cost-effectiveness analyses of healthcare interventions and have experience conceptualizing and implementing simulation models (e.g., discrete event simulation) and other decision-analytic models (e.g., decision trees, Markov, individual state-transition, survival partition), a position in Modelling and Simulation at Evidera is waiting for you!

• Implement simulation models (e.g., discrete event simulation) and other decision-analytic models (e.g., decision trees, Markov, individual state-transition, survival partition) to assess the cost-effectiveness of healthcare interventions. Support scientific and financial project management, scoping, tracking progress, and teamwork for multiple projects.
• Implement one or more of the following under direction:
• Design and development of health economic models to conduct cost-effectiveness and budget impact analyses of healthcare interventions.
• Program models using Microsoft Excel with Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) or simulation specialised software.
• Conduct literature reviews with emphasis on extracting data pertinent to health economic evaluations and cost-effectiveness analyses.
• Conduct basic statistical analyses (e.g., descriptive statistics and regression analysis)
• Support development and maintenance of scientific resources (e.g., model templates, modelling training manuals).
• Draft project deliverables (e.g., Excel with VBA based models, user guides, model specifications and technical reports) and draft abstracts and sections of manuscripts with possible co-authorship.
• Track budget and expenses and monitor timelines and deliverables for multiple projects.
• Support other "non-billable" activities as needed (e.g., draft proposals; informal mentoring of junior staff; develop relations with colleagues within the company)

• PhD or Master's degree in Operations Research, Mathematics, Economics, Engineering, Biostatistics or related field or Bachelor's degree in a similar program with more than two years of relevant work experience.
• Experience with programming simulation models (e.g., discrete event simulation) and other decision analytic models (e.g., decision trees, Markov, individual state-transition, survival partition) in Microsoft Excel or R is preferred.

• Practical knowledge of simulation modelling and implementation using Microsoft Excel.
• Prior experience with VBA, R, or other programming languages.
• Candidates with prior experience in health care modelling and health-economic outcomes research preferred
• Strong quantitative skills, with solid understanding of basic statistics.
• Ability to manage deadlines, multiple tasks and relationships in a fast-paced, team-oriented and lean environment.
• Basic understanding of research methods.
• Strong oral, written, and interpersonal communication skills.
• Extremely detail-oriented with strong organization skills

• Required: Advanced Microsoft Excel modelling skills. Proficiency in Microsoft Word, and Microsoft PowerPoint
• Desired: Experience implementing simulation models/decision-analytic software
