The Role

As a Medical Writer you will play a critical role in developing high-quality, scientifically accurate, and regulatory-compliant clinical trial documents that support the development of innovative therapies. For this role you should have extensive and proven experience in medical writing within the clinical research/pharmaceutical industry, with a strong focus on Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials. This role requires a deep understanding of ICH GCP guidelines, regulatory requirements, and compliance standards set by relevant agencies (e.g., FDA, EMA).

Regulatory Compliance and Quality Assurance:

  • Ensure all documents comply with ICH GCP, regulatory requirements, and internal SOPs.
  • Conduct thorough quality checks to ensure accuracy, consistency, and completeness of data and content.
  • Review and interpret clinical data to ensure accuracy and consistency in documentation, aligning with study objectives and regulatory expectations.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (e.g., clinical operations, biostatistics, regulatory affairs) to incorporate feedback and ensure alignment with study objectives and regulatory expectations.
  • Maintain audit-ready documentation, including version control, review comments, and approval signatures.

Scientific and Literature Support:

  • Conduct thorough literature reviews to support clinical research projects, ensuring that all documents are grounded in the latest scientific evidence and industry best practices.
  • Synthesize complex scientific and clinical data into clear, concise, and compelling narratives for regulatory submissions, publications, and internal communications.

Project Management and Coordination:

  • Plan and manage timelines for document development, ensuring timely delivery of high-quality deliverables.
  • Coordinate with internal and external stakeholders (e.g., investigators, regulatory agencies, CROs) to gather necessary input and resolve queries.
  • Demonstrate strong time management skills to handle multiple projects simultaneously and meet tight deadlines.

Collaboration and Communication:

  • Work effectively across cultures and time zones, fostering collaboration with global teams.
  • Provide expert guidance to team members on medical writing best practices, regulatory requirements, and document standardization.
  • Present complex scientific and clinical data in a clear and concise manner to diverse audiences, including non-scientific stakeholders.

Document Management:

  • Ensure final documents and supporting quality check documentation are archived in the appropriate document management system.
  • Maintain organised records of all drafts, revisions, and approvals for future reference and audits.

Your Profile

Key Experience and skills:

  • Bachelor's degree in Life Sciences, Pharmacy, Medicine, or a related field.
  • Strong experience in medical writing within the clinical research industry, with a focus on Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials.
  • Deep understanding of clinical research methodologies and regulatory requirements [In-depth knowledge of ICH GCP guidelines, and compliance standards (e.g., FDA, EMA)]

  • Exceptional writing skills: Demonstrated ability to write clear, concise, and scientifically accurate documents.

  • Attention to detail: Meticulous approach to ensuring accuracy and consistency in all deliverables.
  • Technical proficiency: High-level expertise in Microsoft Word, Excel, and other tools for creating tables, graphs, and figures.
  • Cross-cultural collaboration: Ability to work effectively with global teams across different time zones.

Good to have:

  • Experience with electronic submission tools (e.g., eCTD).

  • Familiarity with medical terminology and clinical trial processes.
  • An advanced degree (e.g., Master's, PhD) is advantageous.
