I jumped from health benefits consulting to market access in pharma. Manager level, so about right. You're going to be working with data, so I suggest making sure you are familiar with all of the data sources that pharma purchases access to. Medical and Pharmacy claims data, know the difference between TRx and NRx, formulary and medical policy data (MMIT, Policy Reporter, etc), copay cards (how they work), the landscape of all the ways the industry tries to control access to your drugs, understand how medicare and medicaid work, etc. You need to be able to think about what's important from the viewpoint of the manufacturer, but also what's compliant.
