Senior Medical Writer

Senior Medical Writer | Pharma Marketing Agency | Berkshire | £48k – £52k

Overview

We’re working with a highly respected, independent healthcare marketing agency that’s on the lookout for a Senior Medical Writer to join their growing team. This is a fantastic opportunity to step into a senior-level writing role within a strategically focused, creatively driven agency that punches well above its weight.

The agency has a team of around 30 and offers a collaborative, fast-paced environment where you’ll have real influence on the work being produced. They’re based in [insert city/region], and you’ll be in the office four days per week—working shoulder-to-shoulder with strategists, creatives, client services, and fellow med writers.

The Opportunity

As Senior Medical Writer, you’ll be a key player in the creation of scientifically sound, strategically aligned, and highly engaging content across a variety of deliverables. You’ll work on materials for both HCP education and promotional campaigns across a wide range of therapy areas including oncology, neurology, dermatology, and rare diseases.

This is an ideal role for a writer who enjoys diversity in their projects and is comfortable switching between scientific depth and creative storytelling.

Key Deliverables Include:

• Sales aids for pharma sales teams
• Keynote speaker decks and presentation content
• Webinar scripts and interactive webinar content
• Medical education copy for HCP engagement
• Congress and exhibition collateral
• Symposia content and supporting materials

What They’re Looking For:

• 3–5+ years of experience in medical writing, ideally within an agency environment
• A strong life sciences background (ideally MSc or PhD)
• Proven experience working on multi-format content with a scientific backbone
• Confident communicator, able to liaise with clients and internal stakeholders
• Familiarity with ABPI Code and pharma industry compliance standards
• A team player who’s proactive, adaptable, and comfortable owning projects
• Experience across oncology, neurology, dermatology or rare diseases is a plus

Why This Role Stands Out

• Join a stable, independent agency with a reputation for excellent client service and creative thinking
• Work on meaningful, science-driven campaigns across high-impact therapy areas
• Four in-office days encourage real team connection and faster collaboration
• Opportunity to contribute strategically while still doing hands-on writing
• Supportive culture with minimal bureaucracy
