About the role
We are looking for an individual with medical writing and medical copywriting skills & experience, who can apply their flair and join us in working on a range of commercially-orientated medical projects. Our clients’ work spans the spectrum of scientific and promotionally related claims, so you need to have the depth and breadth of scientific understanding, alongside expertise in writing for a range of audiences and within multiple media. You need to be comfortable in understanding scientific data and its application in crafting effective, easily digestible narratives and content, blended with creative story telling. You will need to be familiar with leveraging the client’s brand and communication strategy throughout all medical communications content.
Bringing your skills together will enable you to produce scientifically and medically sound, strategic, bold, and persuasive messages that feed into a broader content strategy approach for a range of clients and therapy areas.
You will be responsible for the development of a range of integrated campaign materials and creative conceptualisation and branding innovation. You will ensure all work is medically accurate and creatively on point, whilst delivering on time and within budget. You will be expected to know your clients’ processes as well as have brand ownership and develop expert knowledge of the therapy areas you are working in. You’ll be working closely with other Avalere Health medical team members and commercial/creative colleagues in a truly integrated team – so it’s a great environment for sparking ideas, helping each other and doing the best for our clients and patients. The role really does have a hybrid nature to it and the opportunities to develop multiple skills make this a different proposition to a more “traditional” medical writing role.
What you'll do
- Lead both medical writing & medical copywriting projects for promotional medical communications & high science commercial marketing deliverables – developing promotional or scientific copy for use across multiple media
- Partner with creative directors on conceptual themes/campaign creatives
- Participate in strategy discussions internally and externally – across integrated teams including medical and commercially-focused accounts
- Provide a point of contact with clients, proactively driving conversations and leading on content strategy
- Ensure on-brand messaging and accurate content that aligns with the overall strategy
- Collaborate with art directors, production, and digital/motion teams on projects; work with senior writers to develop scientific content across your portfolio of writing projects
- Deliver presentations to creative and medical teams whenever needed
- Reference and annotate all work, in accordance with client review procedures
What we can offer
You'll receive up to a 7% pension contribution, life insurance, income protection, and private medical insurance for peace of mind. Enjoy flexible working arrangements, including flexible hybrid working, along with the option to work from anywhere across the globe two weeks each year. We provide 25 days of annual leave plus two personal well-being days, along with gifted end-of-year holidays and an early Summer Friday finish in June, July, and August.
Access free counselling through our employee assistance program, as well as personalized health support. Enhanced maternity, paternity, family leave, and fertility policies provide support across every stage of your family-planning journey, as well as on-demand support from our partner Peppy. You can also benefit from continuous opportunities to professionally develop with on-demand training, support, and global mobility opportunities across the business.
