Existing knowledge of market access and value communications is essential, and we’d prefer you to have a background in life-sciences. However, attitude and aptitude are more important to us than experience and qualifications.

There’s also plenty of room for progression and promotion, if you’re proactive, work well in a team, and are keen to learn. Working hours and pattern Full time ideally. But we measure commitment by how dedicated you are, not by the hours you work. As with many aspects of our roles, when and where you work can be flexible, to suit your lifestyle and situation (within reason). Location This role will be remote i.e. home-working. We appreciate that while working from home has its perks, it can also be lonely, which is why we offer lots of opportunities to connect with the rest of the team, as well as the potential to work from co-working spaces local to you. Whether or not you’re wearing your pyjama bottoms on a Teams call is entirely your business. Salary & benefits £43-55k, depending on your experience. Our benefits include at least 25 days’ holiday (increasing each year) plus your birthday and the Christmas period off, discretionary profit share bonus, flexible working hours, funding for external training, Vitality private medical insurance, and industry-leading family friendly policies, including 8 weeks at full pay for the birth or adoption of a child, irrespective of gender (yours, not the baby’s!).
