Role Profile

We have an exciting vacancy for a Scientific Director for established medical affairs accounts, working across several respiratory areas including COPD, severe asthma and refractory chronic cough. With key therapy area knowledge including respiratory 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 strategic account lead within existing teams and will use your medical communications expertise to work closely with colleagues and clients as a trusted advisor.

You will be responsible for line management, mentorship and reviewing work of junior team members to ensure the highest standards are met throughout, with a passion for developing people. You’ll be responsible for ensuring alignment of strategy and content across different parts of the respiratory franchise and excel at juggling multiple priorities and workstreams.

In our Scientific Directors, we are looking for leaders – people who are passionate about communicating highly scientific content in an accessible medical 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. You will embrace learning the nuances of account therapy areas quickly, and adapting content and style to the appropriate audience.

You will be confident in your decision-making abilities and highly experienced in Medical Communications, together with a commitment to quality.

Don’t meet every job requirement? That’s okay! Our company is dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace. If you’re excited about this role, but your experience doesn’t perfectly fit every qualification, we encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right person for this role or others.
