Who are Prescient?
Prescient is a specialist global consultancy focused exclusively on the biopharmaceutical industry. Following the recent acquisitions of Uptake and Dolon, Prescient now operates across four core practices: Commercial, Medical, Competitive Strategy and Value, Pricing & Access. Together, we deliver best-in-class intelligence, evidence and strategic consulting to leading biopharma organizations worldwide.
Our work supports clients across the full product lifecycle, from early pipeline through post-launch, delivering timely insights and strategic recommendations that enable informed decision-making across commercial, medical, competitive intelligence, evidence generation and market access function.
Within our Medical practice, we deliver integrated solutions across three core pillars, Medical Strategy & Planning, Evidence Generation Strategy, and Organizational Excellence, enabling clients to strengthen medical impact, accelerate decision-making and build future-ready medical organizations. Increasingly, our differentiation comes from pairing genuine scientific and technical depth with strategic medical affairs judgement.
About the role
As a Senior Consultant, you will bring technical depth and analytical rigour to our medical affairs engagements, with hands-on expertise in real-world evidence (RWE), literature reviews, database studies and epidemiology modeling. This is a core delivery role across our three pillars, medical strategy and planning, evidence generation and organizational excellence, for a consultant who can execute sophisticated technical work and shape it into insight that supports clients’ medical strategy.
Our clients increasingly expect partners with genuine technical credibility and a real understanding of how medical affairs works, the ability to design sound studies, interrogate evidence critically, and explain what it means for medical decision-making. You will be central to delivering that depth on project teams, working alongside senior colleagues across a portfolio of leading pharmaceutical and biotech accounts.

What role will I play on projects?

- Apply methodological expertise in real-world data and observational study design, economic modelling, and epidemiological methods, ensuring analytical quality and defensible interpretation.
- Draw out the “so what.” Lead write-ups and presentations of findings with genuine depth, surfacing strategic implications rather than summarising outputs.
- Lead client discussions on assigned workstreams, tailoring communication to cross-functional medical affairs audiences.
- Support business development through proposal development, methodological and strategic scoping, and high-quality supporting materials.
- Provide guidance to junior colleagues on methodology, analytical standards and evidence interpretation.
- Contribute to consistently high-quality, executive-ready deliverables and to the practice’s evidence and medical strategy capabilities.
What skills and experience do I need for this role?
- Advanced degree strongly preferred, Master’s (MSc or equivalent) or PhD in epidemiology, health economics, biostatistics, public health, life sciences, or a related discipline.
- 3–4 years of relevant professional experience, with hands-on delivery in real-world evidence, HEOR, or epidemiology modelling.
- Prior consulting experience is required.
- Strong methodological foundation in real-world data and study design, economic modelling, and epidemiological methods, with the ability to ramp quickly across therapeutic areas.
- A working understanding of medical affairs and how evidence supports medical strategy, scientific communication, and decision-making across the product lifecycle.
- Ability to interrogate evidence and translate it into implications, not simply describe data.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills; able to present credibly to senior pharmaceutical stakeholders.
- Collaborative by nature, working effectively alongside consultants from varied technical and strategic backgrounds.
