Job Description :

We are Havas Life Paris.

We are part of the largest health advertising and communications organization in the world. We are individuals, each bringing unique stories and life experience, who share the same ambition: making a meaningful difference to the health & wellness of people and the community.

Our partners are brands that are obsessed with improving the lives of people. From oncology to rare diseases, to public & animal health — we craft brand platforms, campaigns, and activations that push health conversations forward.

As a Medical Writer your role is to provide in-depth knowledge and comprehensive writing skills with expertise in writing across all promotional/non-promotional tactics.

With the ability to tackle day-to-day copy needs with little supervision, you should be able to carry an account if necessary and have strong, yet scientifically sound, creative writing. You should develop positive relationships with team members and clients. Ideally, you will be able to comfortably write on the more medical projects as well as the promotional ones – and across different HCP audiences as well as patients and consumers.

Your missions, if you accept this challenge.

• In-depth analysis of peer-reviewed scientific publications to help develop medical-strategic recommendations and communication materials for our Global and region Europe clients.
• Write and develop medical and scientific communication tools for print and digital media (HCP sales aids and brochures, websites, patient leaflets, slide decks for sales reps or for KOL webinars, videos…etc.) (promotional, non-promotional and medical education).
• Maintain consistency of message/strategy involving writing headlines, subheads and body copy; work with an art director to ensure the work is visually and scientifically relevant; suggest ways for the Art Director to graphically present the data.
• Work occasionally closely with the creative team to generate powerful ideas – conceptually, tactically and even strategically at times.
• Ensure scientific accuracy & quality of documents as well as their regulatory compliance.
• Develop discussion guides to interview experts, healthcare professionals and key opinion leaders.
• Attend client meetings and presentations where work is discussed, and be able to speak to your work.
• Work with the client to explore/incorporate suggestions and directives, resolving questions, concerns and overcoming objections.
• Attend medical/legal/regulatory committee reviews (depending on client) and defend and support copy choices when challenged.
• Participate in generating background research, when required, for new clients or new business.
• Support other accounts and writers where needed and when time allows.
