Role Profile
We have an exciting vacancy for a publications-focussed Scientific Director on two assets for the same leading global pharmaceutical client.
Both are fast-paced established accounts; the first on a pipeline respiratory asset and the second covers novel anti-infectives. Both assets are potentially practice changing and we partner with our clients to provide scientific and strategic support for their publications portfolio.
With key therapy area knowledge including respiratory disease or infectious diseases, your experience writing, developing and reviewing related content within a Healthcare/Medical Communications setting will be a critical success factor.
You will be the scientific publications lead within existing teams and will use your medical communications expertise to partner closely with colleagues and clients as a trusted publications professional. The teams support all types of scientific publications, including data manuscripts, review articles, abstracts, posters, and oral presentations, and publication enhancements, together with support for strategic publication planning. Some support of non-publication deliverables may be possible. Additionally, you will be responsible for line management, mentorship, and reviewing work of junior team members to ensure the highest standards are met throughout.
In our Scientific Directors, we are looking for leaders – people who are passionate about communicating highly scientific content in an accessible and educational setting. You will partner closely with our pharmaceutical clients to provide scientific and strategic input, as well as ensuring the scientific accuracy and highest quality of deliverables.
