Senior Account Manager - Healthcare PR

Senior Account Manager, Healthcare, Life Science & Technology PR/Communications

Small, independent, integrated consultancy spanning PR and content marketing (digital and traditional) for a genuinely varied client base: biotech, diagnostics, scientific instrumentation, CROs and health charities. Flat structure: a couple of Account Directors with teams, everyone reporting straight to the two founders. There are genuinely no politics and no long hours.

The role:

• You’ll run integrated programmes end to end, be the client’s trusted point of contact, start shaping strategy rather than just delivering it, and get properly involved in new business.
• There’s lots of social media and content work, so you need to enjoy writing creatively.
• write copy; build and write slide decks covering strategy and tactical plans; produce reporting, comprehensive media plans and strategies; write and deliver content (long and short form); interview spokespeople; and prepare media and marketing materials.
• Senior day-to-day lead on your accounts, with an AD above you who wants you to grow rather than keep you in your lane.

Who it suits:

A Senior Account Manager (or a strong AM ready to step up) from a large ethical/Rx or healthcare comms agency who is very good at the work but has had enough of the pace, the hierarchy and the hours. If you want to do high-quality thinking for interesting clients in a kinder environment, with a genuine route to AD, this is the one.

Essential:

Solid agency experience in Rx/ethical pharma or healthcare communications, a science background, confidence as the senior day-to-day client lead, strong writing and content instincts, an appetite for new business, and genuine interest in a mixed portfolio including charity and tech.
