About you:

• Strong prior experience in medical and/or scientific editing, ideally within a medical communications or healthcare advertising agency.
• Exceptional attention to detail with strong editing, proofreading, and fact-checking skills.
• Confident working across multiple asset types and therapeutic areas.
• Strong understanding of editorial standards, style guides, and quality control processes.
• Clear and professional communicator who works well with cross-functional teams.
