About the Role
Following the exciting development of the launch of our new Shanghai office, we are recruiting for Medical Writers to join us there as we develop our work for clients based in the region. You will work closely with our experienced global team, including colleagues in Singapore who are currently delivering work for our clients in China.
We are looking for those with experience in scientific research and for enthusiastic recent graduates in the sciences who possess exceptional English and Mandarin language skills in order to support our growing client base in China, and have keen interest in pioneering further expansion of the company into China. This is therefore a particularly exciting opportunity if you are keen to help shape the future of Costello Medical. As a founding member of a small regional office, you will need to be self-motivated and proactive, with a genuine enthusiasm for the exciting atmosphere of an expanding business.
Medical Writers and Analysts work on projects involving the detailed analysis of data from clinical trials and the assimilation and creative presentation of this analysis in different formats including posters, slide sets, value dossiers, reports and peer-reviewed publications. These deliverables are used directly by our clients in communication with external stakeholders instrumental to the successful uptake of novel therapies. The work is structured on a project-by-project basis and you will usually be working on several projects in different disease areas at any one time.
You will work in project teams alongside experienced colleagues who provide one-to-one training in the technical aspects of the role, including project management and effective client communication. Delivering project work requires close collaboration with clients, and following a successful induction period you will increasingly participate in teleconferences and face-to-face meetings with external stakeholders.
