Perform as a document specialist, provide intellectual input across document types, and contribute to making cutting-edge research accessible to specific audiences as appropriate, by maintaining current awareness of developments across therapeutic areas or disciplines.
Attend client and other external meetings to support senior team members in finalizing meeting materials, liaising with clients, HCPs, and vendors, and providing project management support as needed. Travel is typically 2-4 trips per year, with opportunities for more if desired.
Liaise and build trusting and professional relationships with international pharmaceutical clients, healthcare professionals, internal and external stakeholders, including authors, reviewers, and key opinion leaders across therapeutic areas - learning to anticipate their needs.
