Internship Marketing/PRA: Market Analysis and Launch Advice for an Innovative Medicine

We are a global healthcare leader. Our employees around the world work to discover and bring life-changing medicines to those who need them, improve the understanding and management of disease, and give back to our communities through philanthropy and volunteerism. We give our best effort to our work, and we put people first. We're looking for people who are determined to make life better for people around the world.

Location: Netherlands | Start date: To be agreed | Duration: 4-8 months

We develop medicines to improve people's lives worldwide. By harnessing the power of biotechnology, chemistry, and genetic medicine, our scientists work with great dedication to solve the world's most important health challenges. In the Netherlands, our employees are involved in clinical research of medicines, sales, distribution, and support services.

About the internship

We are preparing the Dutch introduction of an innovative medicine that is currently in development. The product is being prepared within our product planning department. During this internship, the intern will map the Dutch market and advise us on the best way to bring this medicine to the Dutch market.

What will you do?

The project is in the pre-launch phase, well ahead of the expected registration. This makes it possible to explore with an open mind what Dutch care for this condition currently looks like and where a new medicine can make a difference. The intern will gain in-depth knowledge of the processes involved in introducing an innovative medicine, including market research, positioning, and reimbursement.

The assignment has a broad scope and combines (pharmaceutical) subject-matter knowledge with commercial and strategic aspects. The intern conducts both internal and external research (including literature, data, and conversations with relevant stakeholders) and answers the following questions:

•How large is the patient population in the Netherlands (epidemiological analysis)?

•Where are these patients currently located in the diagnosis and treatment pathway (Health Care Transaction Model)?

•What are the current pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment options, and where are the bottlenecks?

•Is there a need for a new medicine, and which group of healthcare professionals will be involved with it?

•What are the costs of this condition for the Netherlands, and is reimbursement of this medicine to be expected (reimbursement pathway)?

The end goal of the internship is an in-depth analysis of the Dutch market, concluding with a substantiated recommendation to us: what is the best way to introduce this medicine to the Dutch market (Launch Implementation Plan)? This takes into account:

•Dutch healthcare practice,

•acceptance by healthcare professionals,

•practical applicability,

•the reimbursement climate,

•and legislation on medicinal product advertising, as well as the Code of Conduct for Medicinal Product Advertising (Gedragscode Geneesmiddelenreclame).

In addition, the assignment helps prevent a suboptimal introduction, for example when the innovation is insufficiently embraced by the target group or when assumptions about use and implementation do not match actual practice.

Translation notes:

•PRA in the title is left as is, since the abbreviation isn't expanded in the source (it likely refers to a Pricing, Reimbursement & Access function, but you may want to confirm internally).

•I kept Health Care Transaction Model, Launch Implementation Plan, and Gedragscode Geneesmiddelenreclame as named frameworks/documents, with an English gloss for the Dutch code.

•Werkervaring stagiair is rendered as work experience intern ; internship or placement would also work depending on your preferred register.
