About the Role

The Analyst and Medical Writer positions are ideal for recent graduates in the sciences, and those with experience in scientific research, who are seeking the opportunity to apply their knowledge to real-world projects. Analysts and Medical Writers work on projects involving the detailed analysis of data from clinical trials and the assimilation and creative presentation of this analysis in different formats including posters, slide sets, value dossiers, reports and peer-reviewed publications. These deliverables are used directly by our clients in communication with external stakeholders, which are instrumental to the successful uptake of novel therapies.

You will work in project teams alongside experienced colleagues who will provide training on the technical aspects of the role as well as project management and effective client communication. Delivering project work requires close collaboration with clients, and following a successful induction period you will increasingly participate in teleconferences and face-to-face client meetings. The latter may present opportunities for travel within the US and internationally.

You will be based in our office in Boston, which was established in 2020. This presents opportunities to shape and drive our US company; an endeavor supported by the success of our existing operations in the UK and Asia. You will work closely with our Scientific Director, who is based in Boston and has more than 10 years of experience in the industry, and other senior colleagues in the US and globally.

Costello Medical is structured into divisional teams focusing on distinct services within the healthcare industry. Our Boston office is structured around three teams who focus on Medical Communications, Evidence Development and Market Access. Upon joining Costello Medical, you will join one of these teams but will also have the opportunity to work on projects in other areas. Please note that you will be asked to specify which team you are applying for in your application form.
