About you

  • Previous experience working within a medical communications agency is essential
  • Strong background in medical writing with experience leading scientific strategy
  • Degree in a life sciences discipline (higher degree or PhD advantageous)
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
  • Able to balance strategic thinking with hands-on scientific leadership in a fast-paced agency environment


What's on offer

  • Hybrid working (Central London office with home working flexibility)
  • Private healthcare
  • Generous holiday allowance, including Christmas closure
  • Supportive, collaborative culture with excellent opportunities for career progression
