Matching the best candidates with the most sought-after healthcare communications jobs

Healthcare communication job functions requires a specialist skillset, with the capability to get under the skin of cutting-edge science and technologies. Since 2002, Hanson Search has a profound understanding of exactly what is required in healthcare communications jobs, and our international network certifies that we always find the correct match for our clients and candidates.

We work with clients on jobs at a mid to senior level, that cover specialist healthcare communications agencies, pharmaceutical and biotech companies, membership bodies, health tech start-ups, and charities, to find the talent they require to make their mark in a fast-moving industry. The healthcare communications jobs on our books extend over the whole breadth of healthcare skillsets, which include healthcare PR, medical education, patient advocacy, and communications. Our emphasis is mid-to-senior level, from Account Directors to Managing Directors.

Over the last 20 years, we have constructed a high-quality network across the UK, European, MENA and US markets, as demonstrated through our support for The Communiqué Awards, Cannes Lions and as members of WHAM – a networking group supporting senior female healthcare communications talent.

Whether you’re a healthcare organisation on the quest for the best talent with vacancies to fill, or a candidate pursuing a new job, our expert consultants offer advice and consultancy on the best fit for your requirements.

If you are you looking for your next role in the sector, please don’t hesitate to give us a call to discuss your needs.
