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. 
 
Together we define white space, push boundaries and empower people to solve problems. If you're someone who defies convention, join us and work alongside some of the most respected minds in the industry. Together, we'll ask "why not?" and help reengineer the future of biopharma.

What You'll Do

The Market Access organization plays a critical role in that mission. This team is responsible for ensuring that patients can access BridgeBio’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.

We are seeking a Senior Vice President of Market Access to lead this function as an enterprise leader at BridgeBio. This individual will be accountable for developing and executing strategies that optimize patient access, reimbursement, availability, and affordability for our U.S. portfolio, spanning rare disease and specialty therapies. The SVP will serve as a key member of the Commercial Leadership Team and a strategic partner across the broader BridgeBio organization.
