Job description

Associate Editor/Editor

We are currently seeking an Associate Editor with a minimum of 1.5 years of experience in medical communications (editorial assistant/junior writer) for an exciting opportunity.

The ideal candidate will be proficient in using Microsoft applications such as PowerPoint, Word, and Adobe. In addition, they should have a good working knowledge and application of compliance and the ABPI code.

Applicants should also have solid experience using Veeva, including reference linking and managing documents through review. Experience editing documents to align with different client styles is also required.

If you meet the above requirements and are looking to further your career in medical communications, we want to hear from you.

We are on the hunt for 2 x levels

• Associate Editor (£31-34k)

The core of the role is compliance management of materials such as slides, speaker briefs, materials to promote meetings etc. The successful candidate will be well versed in referencing scientific materials and using PowerPoint, preferably with hands on experience of pharmaceutical compliance software.

We are also looking for a more experienced editor.

This proven experience to provide more senior editing input is essential for candidates applying for this role.
