Medical Content Lead

What you’ll do:

• Lead the development of high-quality, scientifically rigorous content across a high volume of deliverables, including complex projects, brands, and/or therapeutic areas, working independently with minimal input needed from senior-level reviewers
• Provide strategic input to clients and internal teams on scientific messaging, differentiation with competitors, impactful data inclusion and interpretation, and educational needs
• Challenge and refine project briefs, as appropriate, to ensure that deliverables are tactically relevant, strategically sound, and scientifically robust
• Guide less-experienced medical writers on content structure, data interpretation, referencing, and alignment with strategic imperatives, informally supporting their development
• Harness strong interpersonal skills to develop and strengthen key relationships with clients and key opinion leaders across multiple therapeutic areas
• Leverage experience on assigned accounts/therapeutic areas to make proactive recommendations to clients regarding content enhancements or new deliverables or approaches that support organic growth
• Ensure all deliverables meet the highest standards of scientific accuracy, consistency, and compliance with client guidelines and industry regulations
