At Area 23 on Hudson, we don’t just deliver medical communications—we engineer work that moves people and changes behavior. We blend scientific rigor with creative energy to elevate brands, shift thinking, and spark action.

We're looking for an Associate Medical Director ready to take the next step in their career. If you’re scientifically curious, strategically driven, and eager to grow in a collaborative, high-impact environment, this could be your opportunity to thrive.

The Role

As an Associate Medical Director, you'll become a critical voice in translating clinical and scientific knowledge into smart, compelling brand strategy. Working closely with senior Medical Directors and cross-functional teams, you’ll help shape communications that are accurate, relevant, and above all—powerful.

What You'll Do

• Develop a strong grasp of assigned brands, therapeutic areas, and competitive landscapes
• Ensure scientific accuracy and alignment with brand strategy across a range of deliverables
• Collaborate with creative, strategic, and account teams to bring the medical perspective to life
• Participate in workshops and support client interactions with confidence
• Stay on top of key literature, emerging data, and industry developments
• Contribute to pitch research, help craft medical backgrounders, and identify the “medical hook” in new business opportunities

What You’ll Bring

• An advanced degree in a clinical or scientific field (e.g., PharmD, PhD, MD)
• 1+ year of experience in medical communications or a related industry
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Sharp attention to detail and an appetite for strategic thinking
• A collaborative spirit and a proactive mindset

Why Area 23 on Hudson?

We’re part of the IPG Health network and proud of it. But what sets us apart is how we think and how we work—raising the bar, breaking conventions, and delivering science that’s sexy, not starchy; content that’s cool, not cliché.
