About this role

The Senior Vice President, Pharmaceutical Manufacturer Business Development, leads Prescryptive’s engagement and commercial partnerships with pharmaceutical manufacturers in support of our Direct Pharma Marketplace. This executive builds and expands manufacturer participation in a new model for drug access — one that replaces rebates with direct, transparent pricing to drive affordability and patient access.

The SVP will define the manufacturer engagement strategy, accelerate deal execution, and establish long-term strategic partnerships that advance Prescryptive’s mission to transform the pharmacy ecosystem. Success in this role requires deep knowledge of pharmaceutical business models, the ability to navigate complex decision networks, and the judgment to negotiate high-impact, mutually beneficial agreements.

In this early-stage, high-growth company, the SVP operates across strategic and tactical levels — crafting vision, building relationships, and directly leading key negotiations. This leader thrives in ambiguity, drives accountability, and models agility while building scalable frameworks for growth.
