Medical Writer

Words are your thing. You can communicate complex scientific ideas in a concise manner and tailor communications perfectly for their audience. In that case, we can’t wait to hear from you.

Join us in our mission and make a positive difference in people’s lives.

At Cuttsy+Cuttsy we are committed to supporting patients and healthcare professionals. Everyday our communications are making impact.

As a medical writer, you will develop engaging copy for a range of medical communications materials, platforms and audiences. Projects will be varied - one day you may be creating patient materials to support them with their chronic disease, the next, you may be writing communications to help doctors make a treatment decision based on scientific evidence.

The variety will require you to adapt your writing style and approach depending on the project objectives. As a Medical Writer, you will be capable of placing yourself in the shoes of your audience, and this could not be more important in the role here at Cuttsy+Cuttsy.

The role will be supported by the Content Director; however, you will find yourself working alongside team members in Strategy, Design and Account Management. ‍

• Use content review management platforms such as Veeva Vault with competence
• Travel to and attend client presentations and projects where necessary (occasionally international travel may be required)
• Timely completion of timesheets

Skill Base:

We offer competitive packages, including private healthcare for you and your family; pension; investment in your professional development; bonus birthday day off; Christmas/New Year shut down on top of annual leave; additional annual leave after 3 years’ service; (and not to mention our annual free trainer giveaway!).

We offer flexible working and we operate a ‘no long hours’ policy. We have recently been recognised by Campaign Magazine as one of the top 3 Best Places to Work and we have been awarded ''We Invest In People, Gold'' by Investors in People.

We operate various working models from 100% remote, hybrid and office based depending on individual and business needs. If successful this would be discussed at the first stage of the recruitment process.
