Economic models within the realm of healthcare are quantitative assessments of the impact of healthcare treatments, practices and policies, either through cost-effectiveness analyses or separate cost and benefit considerations. These models are typically built in Microsoft Excel, R, or C++, employing universal mathematical and statistical modelling techniques. Model development can frequently involve fitting statistical distributions and parametric survival curves to clinical data and therefore requires a good knowledge of statistics. In this role, you will typically be working on multiple projects at any one time, starting at around 3 to 4 when joining. The models developed by our Health Economists have real-world implications, aiming to improve the efficiency of healthcare systems by using robust methodological frameworks to inform decision-making. Producing an economic evaluation therefore requires Health Economists to: Research and critically appraise medical and economic literature Liaise with external medical professionals Work collaboratively and build relationships with colleagues across healthcare disciplines Understand the theoretical health economic framework and apply this to the project at hand Build high-quality, technically robust and clinically valid models in Microsoft Excel or other software Interpret and analyze model results, producing technically accurate written reports of methodologies and outcomes Hybrid Working Policy: We recognize that home-working can improve work life balance, reduce commuting times and costs, and provide the opportunity to juggle personal commitments. At the same time, we believe that having face-to-face time in the office holds many benefits and is central to ensuring that the community we have created, where people have a workplace they belong to and feel part of, is never lost. Therefore, we offer flexible working arrangements that allow our colleagues to work from home for up to half of the time, measured across a 2-week rolling period.
