FirstMedCommsJob: Introduction to MedComms
This was the eighth time we have run this event in Manchester. Once again we had an enthusiastic audience of post-docs andPhD students and others from the biomedical sciences departments within and around Manchester and from other Universities, who met with a number of medical communications professionals for a highly engaging session which presented medical writing and account management in MedComms as attractive career options.
We explained how areas of the UK such as Oxfordshire, London and Cheshire are home to numerous leading medical communications agencies that serve the global pharmaceutical industry... and they're crying out for good staff!
These agencies are looking for individuals with:
a genuine enthusiasm for science and its application to the world of medicine
the ability to work independently within a small-team environment.
MedComms can literally take you all over the world and provides attractive long-term career pathways.
