Associate Consultant *8/5/25 start* (Bos or NY)

Hayden Consulting Group is a strategy and analytics consulting firm that partners with life sciences companies to untangle access complexity, uncover deep insights, and unlock commercial success.

We solve problems that support biopharma manufacturers to unlock markets and help patients achieve access to medicines. Placing access at the forefront of decision-making is critical to ease the process for patients and their providers to obtain clinically necessary therapies. We’re excited to lead the way, driving Access Forward.

We embody the following values:

• BE COMMITTED

• SEEK ADVENTURE
