Content Writer (FTC) - Clinical Trial Experience

Company description

Who we are Langland, a Publicis Health company, is the only health communications agency that thinks further across Clinical Trial Experience, Medical Strategy & Education, Public Relations & Policy, and Advertising, to create unique value with visionary clients.

What we believe Health brings us together. In the diseases we suffer, the medicines we create, and the causes we champion, health shows us our collective humanity. When we break the barriers that divide us, when we think further, we can create healthier futures, together.

A passion for craft Having expert thinking is only part of our story. To ensure excellence in everything we make, we have centred our disciplines around three essential crafts: science, strategy and creativity.

Overview We believe that people are the most valuable asset of any clinical trial. Where others see subjects and protocols, we think further. We see real lives, and craft ideas, words and actions to turn an uncertain journey into a human experience. We partner with our clients across the whole trial journey, thinking further at every step across three key business areas:

• Participant Recruitment
• Participant Engagement
• Site Engagement

To date, we’ve supported over 800 clinical trials in more than 290 conditions over 75 countries, helping to convert over 500,000 patients to a clinical trial at a time when they need it most. All materials we create are translated and rolled-out in each country supporting the clinical trial. The nature of CTE means that every day is different - we never know what brief will come through the door next. But we do know that we’ll have the chance to play a role in bringing a potential new treatment to market. That’s a pretty meaningful way to spend a day at work, right?
