• Conduct scenario, sensitivity, and risk analyses to evaluate key business drivers and inform near-term decision-making.

• Translate complex data, assumptions, and model outputs into clear, actionable insights to support launch planning, performance tracking, and operational readiness.

• Partner cross-functionally with Commercial, Finance, Market Access, Medical Affairs, Supply Chain, and Manufacturing to gather inputs, validate assumptions, and ensure alignment on forecast outputs.

• Support development of production and inventory strategies by providing accurate and timely forecast updates and analyses.

• Integrate real-world data, secondary data sources (e.g., IQVIA), and competitive intelligence into forecasting models to enhance accuracy and responsiveness.

• Execute forecasting activities in alignment with U.S. Forecasting strategy and methodologies established by senior leadership, ensuring consistency and rigor.

• Support enhancements to forecasting processes, tools, and data infrastructure, including model standardization and automation initiatives.

• Maintain clear and transparent documentation of forecasting methodologies, assumptions, and data sources.
