On the forecasting side, the position supports the Associate Director, Etenta Volume Forecasting in developing accurate projections of commercial product volumes across the planning cycles — Plan, Update, LBE, LRP, Portfolio, and Actual submissions — and owns the month-end price, volume/demand, and pipeline variance analyses.

• Provide ad-hoc analytical support across launch, new-indication, and channel/product-mix scenarios, and represent Etenta finance with Marketing, Market Analytics and Business Insight, and Pricing to keep forecast assumptions aligned to the latest market view.
