  • Present work to team members and clients as needed
  • Prioritize and manage workload, meeting projected deadlines
  • Learn / maintain a minimum understanding of terminology, requirements, and processes specific to the pharmaceutical market access space
  • Attend internal and client meetings remotely and occasionally onsite if required
Requirements and Experience

  • Experience working in the pharmaceutical, medical device industries, or healthcare industries is a plus
  • Advanced expertise in Adobe InDesign; proficiency in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator; competency in Adobe XD and Microsoft PowerPoint; basic competency with Microsoft Office Suite, including Word, and Excel
