Job description

In our dedicated Healthcare Practice, we help our healthcare clients bring products, services, and propositions to life across various different disease areas including oncology, rare diseases, gene therapy and neuroscience. We are experts in communications, medical, advocacy and commercial strategies and excel at turning complex concepts into simple and compelling messages.

As you’d expect, we’re strong on the science. But we also provide creative flare and strategic know-how, delivering programmes built on unique ideas and insights. We communicate science with passion. It’s a combination that leads to measurable and meaningful outcomes, helping to change behaviours and drive improvements in healthcare delivery.

• Someone who has an interest in media and understands what makes an interesting story.
• Someone who has a passion for writing, developing first drafts for a range of materials including articles, press releases and social media content.
• Able to work well with our Creative team to produce multimedia (visual, video etc.) content and our Insights team on research programmes.
• Someone with a good knowledge of digital communications channels and social media platforms, who is keen to work with our Digital team to run campaigns.

Client service

• Shows a determination to deliver results simultaneously across multiple complex accounts.
• Provides regular status updates for clients on ongoing projects, and shows an understanding of client budgets.
• Demonstrates an ability to multi-task in time-sensitive, pressurised situations.
• Attention to detail and accuracy in written communication.
• Be able to build trusted relationships with clients on the account which you work.
• Be able to build relationships across the Healthcare Team and wider company.

What the role can offer you

• The opportunity to work with varied and interesting clients.
• The chance to work with a well-established, hard-working, and fun team.
• You will work alongside some of the most talented people in the industry, including specialists in our Insights, Digital, and Creative capabilities.
• First rate, dedicated training that enables employees to take control of their careers to become experts in their field and trusted advisors to clients.
• An opportunity to progress your career in a fast-growing Consultancy.
