Everyone is welcome at this, our second Manchester careers event, which we're delighted to be presenting in association with Vitae NW Hub. It is free to attend for everyone, though primarily intended for post-docs and PhD students from the biomedical sciences departments within Universities, to meet with a number of medical communications (MedComms) professionals for a highly engaging session which presents medical writing and account management in MedComms as attractive career options.
Please do register in advance by simply emailing your name and current position to Peter Llewellyn and we will confirm your place by return.
We will explain how areas of the UK such as Oxfordshire, London and Cheshire are home to numerous leading medical communications agencies that serve the global pharmaceutical industry... and they're crying out for good staff!
