Job Description

Overview

The Senior Finance Data Analyst of Pharmacy Margin & Unit Economics will serve as the technical analytics partner supporting pharmacy margin reporting, unit economics, reimbursement analysis, and profitability modeling across the infusion pharmacy business. This role will report to the Finance Manager of Pharmacy Margin & Unit Economics and will be responsible for building, maintaining, and validating the backend data logic needed to analyze complex drug-level, payer-level, channel-level, claim-level, and branch-level margin performance.

The data supporting pharmacy margin analysis is highly complex and requires significant manipulation, transformation, validation, and automation outside of Excel. The ideal candidate will have strong SQL coding experience, comfort working with large and complex datasets, and the ability to translate operational, reimbursement, procurement, and financial data into scalable analytics that can be used for executive reporting and business decision-making.

The role will partner closely with Finance, Market Access, Margin Optimization, Pharmacy Procurement, IT/Data teams, and operations to ensure margin reporting is accurate, repeatable, and tied to financial results.
