BBH is bringing the Black Sheep approach to health & wellness, with rule-defying creativity in everything from TV commercials for hemorrhoids pills to interactive films set inside the eye.

Part of what makes us unique in this space is that we are not a specialised healthcare communications agency. We’re just BBH, doing Health. We sit in the same space as the rest of the agency, and have access to all the same talent. We believe this gives us an edge in producing exceptional work that challenges conventions and raises the bar.

After a busy year so far, the Health team at BBH is shaping up for a big finish to 2024 - and a strong start to 2025. We’re looking to bring in the very best talent to help us achieve our goals.

As an Associate Medical Writer, you will be responsible (with support) for developing a range of HCP- and patient-facing materials that are as engaging as they are scientifically accurate.

This involves:

• Researching and understanding - Having a strong understanding of the science behind your allocated brands, attending internal brand reviews and of course adeptly referencing the literature to support your content (with support)

• Collaborating - Liaising with other medical/creative copywriters and account handlers as guided to ensure all content is expressed in the optimal way for the target audience

• Client interaction - Attending client meetings to discuss content with another (more senior) writer present

• Pitching - Researching therapy areas and playing an active role in internal discussions, potentially developing pitch slides

• Last but not least, writing and delivering - On time and on brief with guidance from other team members

Behaviours and values

There are no egos in our team. We have carefully recruited people who don’t mind getting stuck in and helping each other out, if it ultimately means the work will be as good as it can be. 

We need people with a good work ethic, good time-keeping, and a real sense of team spirit. 

Perhaps most importantly of all, we need people who truly care about the work; creatives who will demand the best from themselves and from others around them.
