Overview
The Senior Director of Outcomes Research will lead the design, execution, and interpretation of structured expert consensus studies to support client decision-making in health economics, outcomes research, and market access. This role focuses on structured expert consensus methods (Delphi panels, expert elicitation) as well as complementary primary data approaches such as targeted and systematic literature reviews, retrospective chart reviews, registry analyses, and survey-based research. The individual will deliver credible, decision-ready evidence that informs pricing, reimbursement, and clinical positioning across the life sciences sector.
As a senior member of the SAVEs Team, this individual combines methodological rigor with client leadership, helping life sciences clients generate credible, actionable evidence where data gaps exist. This position reports to the Head of Strategic Analytics, Value & Economics.

· Develop protocols, questionnaires, analysis plans, and consensus definitions.
· Manage iterative survey rounds, synthesize feedback, and determine convergence or remaining uncertainty.
· Integrate Delphi findings into HEOR deliverables such as cost-effectiveness models, value dossiers, or evidence synthesis reports.
Expert Engagement & Facilitation
· Identify, recruit, and engage key opinion leaders (KOLs), clinicians, and payer experts across geographies and therapeutic areas.
· Manage expert contracting, compliance, and communication throughout the study lifecycle.
· Facilitate virtual or in-person consensus workshops or advisory panels.
· Ensure objectivity, transparency, and ethical integrity in all expert interactions.
Analysis, Reporting & Dissemination
· Perform qualitative and quantitative analyses of expert responses to assess consensus metrics.
· Develop clear, visually compelling reports and presentations for client and publication use.
· Contribute to peer-reviewed manuscripts, HTA submissions, and conference presentations.
· Summarize findings into actionable insights that directly inform client strategy.
· Mentor junior team members on Delphi methodology, survey design, and stakeholder engagement.
· Establish best-practice templates, SOPs, and training resources for consensus research.
· Collaborate with HEOR, RWE, modeling, and value communication teams to ensure alignment across service offerings.
Requirements:
Qualifications

· 7+ years of experience in outcomes research or HEOR, with at least 3 years leading Delphi or expert elicitation studies.
