For more than 140 years, GSK has pioneered novel research methods and technologies to help protect people from infectious diseases. Our vaccines portfolio of more than 20 marketed vaccines is the broadest in the industry, helping to protect people throughout their lives. We believe prevention, at scale and for impact, is the best health investment for society, patients, and the economy.

Vaccine-preventable diseases are a significant burden on society and healthcare systems; approximately $1 trillion in productivity is lost each year due to preventable conditions. This includes the impact from the 330,000 older adults hospitalized globally each year with RSV, approximately 1 in 3 people who will develop shingles in their lifetime and the 3-11% of people infected with seasonal influenza each year.

Our portfolio will reach over 1 billion people globally this decade. Each year, about 40% of children globally receive a GSK vaccine and GSK is well-placed to lead in the growing adult immunization market. GSK's US vaccines business is designed to support the unique needs of the customer base in the given geography. There are multiple customer-facing roles, each with unique customers/call points, but all dependent upon a high degree of collaboration.

The Vaccine Account Director (VAD) leads the team that owns B2B customer relationships in large, complex healthcare delivery networks (e.g. Health systems, State CDC Awardees, major health departments and Federally Qualified Health Systems). The VAD will lead a team of Vaccine Account Managers (VAMs) as a player/coach. This team collectively owns the GSK Vaccines Commercial Strategic account plan with a focus on brand and portfolio opportunities.

The VAD cultivates relationships with key stakeholders in largest accounts, creates impactful business plans, and executes strategies that drive brand growth and improve healthcare for the patient population in key accounts.
