Our teams deliver highly specialized services, including medical communications, healthcare learning, clinical and commercial consultancy, market access, rare diseases and genomic medicine communications, as well as digital engagement, to global pharmaceutical and biotechnology clients.

Diagnosing software and hardware faults when appropriate and fixing issues as quickly as possible

Day-to-day administration of IT hardware and meeting room technology

Setting up and administering equipment to new starters and existing colleagues

Flexibility with working patterns will be required
