At ISMS, we play an important role in bringing life-changing treatments to patients and their families. We are a young and dynamic team of professionals with a wide scale of academic backgrounds. Our mission is to support the pharmaceutical and biotech industry in bringing innovative therapeutics to the market, working on innovative treatments in cutting-edge areas, such as immunotherapy and gene therapy. This requires a wide range of skills, encompassing scientific assessments of therapies, business analysis and modelling, scientific content creation, and strategic consultancy.

We look for people that value working in a small team, with a focus on intellectual and personal growth, in an atmosphere of openness and trust. We aim at stimulating synergies in complementary capabilities of our team, to keep raising the level of added value, innovation, and quality of projects beyond what you can achieve individually. Together we embrace a spirit of positivity and pride about the team and our projects, in which constructive and result-focused critical thinking is encouraged. Working at ISMS means working as part of a driven and passionate team that will help you broaden and grow your own intellectual capabilities.

Job Description

Are you fascinated by Flanders’ dynamic multidisciplinary ecosystem for medical biotechnology? Do you want to be part of its international network of pharma and biotech companies, universities and organizations involved in R&D and business? Do you have a Master and/or PhD degree, but know the feeling that choosing one job means closing the door for other opportunities? Does your intellect and curiosity require challenges in multiple disciplines? If so, you may be interested in joining ISMS. We are expanding our services to pharmaceutical and biotech companies and have a vacancy for an HEOR Analyst (Health Economics & Outcomes Research).

The Analyst will work directly with our customers and provide support in areas where science and business come together, such as health economics, value communication, epidemiological modeling, and medical communication. If you feel a drive to analyze and communicate complex information and have strong intellectual and interpersonal skills, you may be the person we are looking for.
