INTRODUCTION
This Director role supports the US Pipeline Oncology Director in leading US RWE & HO strategy and execution for Oncology pipeline assets. The role is accountable for developing and delivering components of the US data generation plan (including RWE and economic value evidence), ensuring strategic alignment across key internal stakeholders (US Medical, Commercial/Market Access, Global RWE & HO, Global Medical Affairs, R&D Epidemiology and Clinical Development), and driving high-quality deliverables that inform internal decision-making during product development, pre-launch readiness, and lifecycle planning. The role is anchored to 1–2 priority pipeline assets/indications, with backup support across the broader Oncology pipeline portfolio as needed. Approximately 20% of the role will support RWE & HO needs for a marketed Oncology product in endometrial and rectal cancer, aligned to lifecycle and customer evidence priorities.
Responsibilities
This role will provide YOU the opportunity to lead key activities to progress YOUR career. These responsibilities include some of the following:
- Evidence strategy and planning: Implementation of RWE/HO research by developing evidence generation plan and designing studies for 1–2 priority pipeline assets/indications, aligned to US medical, payer, and access needs; translate strategy into actionable workplans, timelines, and resourcing proposals. Provide backup portfolio support for other pipeline assets as needed.
- Study leadership (RWE/HEOR): Own day-to-day leadership for assigned real-world evidence and health outcomes studies (e.g., real-world evidence studies, cost-effectiveness/budget impact analyses, burden of illness, treatment patterns, patient-focused outcomes) including design and execution in partnership with internal functions and external vendors.
- Cross-functional stakeholder management: Support the US Pipeline Oncology Director in running cross-functional evidence strategy forums and asset-specific meetings by developing agendas/materials, surfacing options, documenting decisions, and tracking actions to closure.
- Scientific communication and quality: Draft/review project specifications, protocols, statistical analysis plans, study reports, abstracts, posters, and manuscripts; ensure adherence to SOPs and high scientific/operational quality.
- Trial design input for US relevance: Provide feedback to Clinical Development and cross-functional teams on optimal trial design to ensure enrollment of US-relevant patient populations and collection of endpoints/outcomes that support US stakeholder needs (e.g., health-related quality of life, patient-reported outcomes, resource utilization, and other health outcomes measures).
- Internal decision support: Provide RWE & HO input to internal decision-making during development and commercialization planning (e.g., trial design considerations, data gap assessments, value messages, evidence prioritization and sequencing).
- Marketed product support: Contribute ~20% effort to US RWE & HO strategy and execution for a marketed product in endometrial and rectal cancer, including data generation planning, cross-functional alignment, and delivery of analyses/publications that support lifecycle evidence needs and value communication.
- External insight generation: Maintain strong alignment with Field Based Payer Medical Teams and other field stakeholders to obtain customer insights; incorporate insights into evidence plans and value communication needs.
- Vendor and budget management: Manage vendors and contractors for assigned studies, including scope, timelines, budget tracking, and change control; escalate risks/issues proactively.
- Governance, compliance, and capability building: Complete required training, adhere to company/department SOPs, and contribute to continuous improvement of processes that enable efficient planning, execution, and dissemination of RWE & HO deliverables.
This role operates with a high degree of independence on assigned workstreams while partnering closely with the US Pipeline Oncology Director. The Director is expected to lead day-to-day study and project execution for 1–2 priority pipeline assets/indications, develop recommendations supported by evidence, and escalate strategic decisions and risks as appropriate. The role also provides backup support across the broader pipeline portfolio by contributing structured inputs, analyses, and stakeholder insights when priorities shift. In addition, approximately 20% of time will be allocated to supporting HEOR needs for a marketed product. This is an individual contributor role with no direct reports; leadership is delivered through project ownership and matrix influence.

What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in real world evidence jobs.
- Advanced degree in epidemiology, biostatistics, health economics, or a related quantitative field
- Hands-on experience with administrative claims or electronic health record databases such as Optum or IBM MarketScan
- Proficiency in SAS or R for data manipulation, statistical modeling, and study execution
- Familiarity with observational study design methods including cohort, case-control, and cross-sectional analyses
- Ability to communicate study findings and limitations to both scientific and non-scientific stakeholders
- Experience supporting regulatory submissions, HEOR dossiers, or payer evidence packages is strongly preferred
Tips for Your Real World Evidence Job Search
Tailor your resume to study designs
Hiring managers scan for the specific study designs you've executed, such as retrospective cohort, claims-based, or pragmatic trial work. Name the designs and databases explicitly in your bullets rather than describing generic analytical tasks.
List every claims database you've used
Optum, IBM MarketScan, Medicare claims, IQVIA data, and similar sources are screeners in many RWE postings. Bury them and you may not pass automated filters, so put your database experience in a dedicated skills section.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists real world evidence openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Target postings by therapeutic area
RWE roles are often embedded in a therapeutic area team, so oncology, cardiovascular, or rare disease experience signals fit beyond methodological skills. Filter openings by disease area when possible and call out your TA depth in your cover letter.
Prepare a methods walk-through for interviews
Interviewers for RWE roles routinely ask you to walk through a study end-to-end, from research question through confounding control to sensitivity analysis. Practice narrating a project you've completed without relying on slides or a script.
Negotiate with publication agreements in mind
Many RWE positions include publication rights language that affects your ability to author or present the work externally. Clarify authorship policy and data disclosure terms during negotiation, not after you've signed an offer.
Real World Evidence Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most real world evidences?
The companies hiring the most real world evidences right now include Precision Medicine, GSK, and Cambridge Pharma Consulting, with the largest share of openings in Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Maryland, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. Pharmaceutical manufacturers, contract research organizations, and health analytics consultancies account for the majority of postings.
How many real world evidence jobs are remote?
About 43% of real world evidence openings are fully remote or hybrid as of June 2026, reflecting the data-centric nature of the work. Roles focused on database programming, statistical analysis, and manuscript writing tend to be the most remote-friendly, while positions requiring close collaboration with medical affairs or market access teams more often require on-site presence.
How do you become a real world evidence?
You typically start by completing a graduate degree in epidemiology, biostatistics, or health economics, then build hands-on experience with large healthcare databases during a fellowship, academic position, or entry-level industry role. Developing proficiency in SAS or R, learning to design observational studies, and contributing to peer-reviewed publications or regulatory submissions strengthens your candidacy considerably for industry RWE roles.
How do you get hired as a real world evidence with little experience?
Focus on roles titled research analyst or outcomes research associate, which are structured entry points that accept candidates with strong quantitative coursework and limited professional experience. Demonstrating thesis or dissertation work involving real-world data, claims analysis, or secondary database research can substitute for industry tenure, and internships at health analytics firms or academic medical centers provide directly relevant credentials hiring managers recognize.
What does the real world evidence interview process look like?
The process usually begins with a recruiter screen, followed by a technical interview where you walk through a study you've designed and executed from research question to sensitivity analyses. A second round often involves a case study or methods presentation to the hiring team, and final interviews typically include conversations with cross-functional stakeholders such as medical affairs, HEOR, or regulatory colleagues who will work alongside the role.
Where can I find and apply to real world evidence jobs?
You can find and apply to real world evidence jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States in one searchable place. Find roles that match your background, experience level, and preferred location, then apply directly to each listing without leaving the platform.
