What are the responsibilities and job description for the Healthcare Market Research Manager, Inspired Health position at West Monroe?
Are you ready to make an impact?
West Monroe is looking to hire a Healthcare Market Research Manager on the Inspired Health Team, located in our Boston office.
Healthcare is a vibrant sector packed with innovation, offering life-changing medicines and medical devices to the market. However, clever medicines and ingenious devices do not help anyone, unless they are recommended by physicians and used by patients. That’s where we come in. We are Inspired.
Inspired Health
Inspired Health is our Boston-based insight consultancy. They collaborate with leading healthcare companies to design qualitative and quantitative research programs that support the innovation, sales, and marketing of medicines and medical devices. Using a methodologically blended and output-focused approach to research design, Inspired helps companies develop the right healthcare solutions, and get these to the right people, with the right messages for success.
Inspired Health & West Monroe
Recently joined with West Monroe, our Inspired Health team now has expanded capabilities to partner with industry experts, functional consultants, and technologists. This gives us expanded opportunities to tell a story around the research data, answer the all-important ‘So What Test’, and make an impact in the Healthcare and Life Sciences sector.
Overview Of Role
You will be placed into a small, agile, multi-disciplinary team, within the organization – we call these teams “Insight Pods”. Within your pod you will support and mentor junior associates, while you support and partner with your Pod Leader in the management and execution of custom designed research projects for your clients.
Inspired Health has a ‘blended’ philosophy to Market Research, meaning you will be expected to work across both Qualitative and Quantitative assignments. We understand that many researchers have a ‘preference’ (or more experience) in Qual vs Quant and we will acknowledge and respect that, giving you greater responsibility in your preferred area. But we will also develop and push you to grow in your non-preferred area – ultimately helping you become an inspired insight consultant.
Employees (and their families) are covered by medical, dental, vision, and basic life insurance. Employees are able to enroll in our company’s 401k plan, purchase shares from our employee stock ownership program and be eligible to receive annual bonuses. Employees will also receive unlimited flexible time off and ten paid holidays throughout the calendar year. Eligibility for ten weeks of paid parental leave will also be available upon hire date.

Other consultancies talk at you.
At West Monroe, we work with you.
We’re a global business and technology consulting firm passionate about creating measurable value for our clients, delivering real-world solutions.
The combination of business and technology is not new, but how we bring them together is unique. We’re fluent in both. We know that technology alone is not the answer, but how we apply it is. We rely on data to constantly adapt and solve new challenges. Actions that work today with outcomes that generate value for years to come.
At West Monroe, we zero in on the heart of the opportunity, getting to results faster and preparing people for what’s next.
You’ll feel the difference in how we work. We show up personally. We’re right there in the room with you, co-creating through the challenges. With West Monroe, collaboration isn’t a lofty promise, but a daily action. We work together with you to turn vision into clear action with lasting impact.
