In 2015, we pioneered a “moneyball for biotech” approach, pooling projects and promising early‑stage research from academia together under one financial umbrella to reduce risk and unleash innovation. This model allows science and small teams of experts to lead the way. We build bridges to groundbreaking advancements in rare disease, and develop life‑changing medicines for patients with unmet needs as fast as humanly possible.

The Market Access organization plays a critical role in that mission. This team is responsible for ensuring that patients can access Bridge Bio’s innovative therapies and have a seamless, human‑centered experience throughout their treatment journey. The scope includes all aspects of U.S. market access—payer and account strategy across medical and pharmacy benefit channels, HEOR, pricing and contracting, reimbursement, distribution, and industry‑leading patient support programs.

We believe deeply in an integrated, agile approach to access that balances rigor with empathy in an increasingly complex healthcare environment.

• Lead, develop, and inspire a high‑performing team
  , fostering an inclusive environment where people are empowered to do their best work in service of patients
• Provide enterprise leadership on U.S. portfolio‑ and product‑level pricing, access, reimbursement, distribution, HEOR and affordability strategies
  , spanning in‑line products, lifecycle management, and future pipeline planning
• Serve as a senior leader within the U.S. organization, contributing to both financial performance and long‑term patient impact
  , and helping to shape Bridge Bio’s commercial strategy as we grow
• Partner closely with cross‑functional stakeholders including Commercial, Medical Affairs, Legal, Finance, CMC, and Government Affairs to anticipate and respond to market, policy, and regulatory dynamics affecting patient access
• Lead efforts to negotiate complex agreements across payers, PBMs, specialty and retail pharmacies, GPOs, and distribution partners
• Build and oversee industry‑leading patient and reimbursement support programs
  , leveraging technology, data, and human‑centered design to reduce friction for patients, caregivers, and providers

This is an onsite role and requires in‑office collaboration 2‑3x per week in our San Francisco Office.

• Bachelor’s degree in business, healthcare, or a related field; advanced degree strongly preferred
• 15+ years of experience within a pharmaceutical or biotechnology organization, with a demonstrated track record of building and leading high‑impact teams and delivering meaningful business and patient outcomes
• 10+ years of direct leadership experience in U.S. Market Access
  , with exposure to complex portfolios including specialty and/or rare disease products; global or ex‑U.S. experience is a plus
• Deep understanding of the U.S. healthcare ecosystem, including payer, PBM, GPO, specialty pharmacy, distributor, and provider dynamics
  , and proven experience navigating challenging reimbursement and access scenarios
• Established executive‑level relationships with key U.S. access stakeholders and a reputation for credibility, transparency, and principled negotiation
