About VML Health

VML HEALTH is a global healthcare agency that partners with healthcare clients across a broad definition of health, from high science to wellness and everything in between. It operates fluidly within the VML agency, as a core group of health specialists (a 'vertical') that has the benefit of autonomy in management, but with support of non-health expertise.

At the heart of health is the story of life - all the highs and lows, ambitions, and possibilities. But facing a health challenge can suddenly pull people away from these stories, knocking them off course.

Our purpose is to bridge this gap, bringing people closer to life and all its meaning. We gain a deeper understanding of Healthcare Professionals' and patients' needs, behaviors and lived experiences through what we call 'radical empathy'.

VML Health creates connected brands that get to the heart, bringing people closer to the lives they want to live. Get to the heart. Connect for life.

International Meetings and Science (IMsci), a division of VML Health, works with companies to build world-class healthcare and pharmaceutical brands among medical professionals and consumers, with a transmedia storytelling approach that covers medical education strategies.

Who We're Looking For

IMsci is seeking a highly motivated and experienced Medical Director to join our team. The ideal candidate will possess a strong scientific background, marketing savvy, and excellent communication skills. We are looking for a leader who is passionate about medical education and communication, with a proven ability to manage multiple teams and client accounts. A deep understanding of scientific principles and the ability to translate complex information into clear and engaging messages are essential for this role.

What You'll Do

• Champion brands by maximizing scientific data to meet strategic imperatives, positioning, and long-term vision.
• Develop and oversee projects requiring a high degree of scientific and technical expertise.

• Write, edit, and rewrite medical content, ensuring scientific accuracy and marketing relevance.
• Collaborate with account services and editorial teams to develop impactful materials.
• Coach, manage, and mentor junior science staff.
• Manage and adhere to internal processes, providing guidance and recommendations.
• Build and maintain relationships with key opinion leaders.
• Participate in new business opportunities.
• Liaise with clients, fulfill requests, and participate in client meetings and teleconferences.
• Develop and maintain strong client relationships at all levels.
• Maintain up-to-date knowledge of the therapeutic market and share relevant insights.
• Participate in the development of creative and innovative programs grounded in science.
• Ensure high-quality agency output, rejecting materials that don't meet standards.
• Manage and direct freelance writers as needed.
