Role Overview
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. About 40% of children globally receive a GSK vaccine, and GSK is well‑placed to lead in the growing adult immunization market.
The Vaccine Account Manager (VAM) owns B2B customer relationships within the largest and most complex healthcare delivery networks (e.g., Health Systems, State CDC Awardees, major health departments, and Federally Qualified Health Systems). The VAM serves as the primary liaison with large customers, engaging C‑D level clinical and non‑clinical stakeholders to understand unique needs and deliver a customized value proposition. The role requires strong customer engagement, knowledge of healthcare contracting, and the ability to work across complex internal and external stakeholder groups.
The VAM leverages field teams to achieve and exceed ambitious sales growth for GSK’s vaccine portfolio.
