  • Interpret clinical data, literature, product strategy, and therapeutic area context into clear scientific narratives for healthcare audiences.
  • Review medical communications deliverables for scientific accuracy, client brief alignment, quality control standards, and appropriate incorporation of feedback.
  • Collaborate with Medical Strategy, Science & Regulatory, Client Services, Project Management, Design, and client stakeholders to meet timelines, budgets, and project objectives.
  • Contribute to proposal development, client discussions, new project ideas, and mentorship of junior medical writers on defined deliverables.

Qualifications



Required:

  • 5+ years of medical communications writing experience, preferably in an agency environment, across multiple client-facing deliverables.
  • Degree in life sciences, with PhD, MD, PharmD, or other advanced scientific degree preferred.
  • Experience developing manuscripts, abstracts, posters, scientific slide decks, advisory board reports, or medical education materials for healthcare audiences.
  • Demonstrated ability to conduct literature reviews, synthesize clinical data, and translate complex science into clear, accurate medical narratives.
  • Experience presenting or discussing scientific content with pharmaceutical, biotech, or life sciences clients and cross-functional teams.
  • Working knowledge of scientific databases, referencing tools, approval platforms, or related resources used in medical communications.

Desired:

  • Comfort and enthusiasm for using AI as a regular part of how work gets done.
  • Experience developing digital healthcare communications, omnichannel medical content, or interactive training programs.
  • Experience across multiple therapeutic areas, with evidence of quickly learning and applying new clinical context.
  • Experience contributing to pitch work, proposal development, or strategic medical communications planning.
  • Experience mentoring associate or junior medical writers on scientific content quality and project execution.
