Why this is worth applying to

Worth applying if you are an experienced medical writer or a clinician with substantial regulatory/clinical document writing experience. It is not suitable for clinicians without prior medical writing or CRO/sponsor experience.

Who should apply

Experienced medical writers with 5+ years in CRO/sponsor settings, especially those with oncology/rare disease and protocol/CSR experience. Clinicians such as MDs, PharmDs, PhDs, or RNs who have already transitioned into regulatory medical writing should consider it.

CV angle

Emphasize ICH/FDA/GCP/eCTD compliance, QC and document management, cross-functional collaboration, and oncology/rare disease exposure. Quantify timelines, document volume, and stakeholder coordination.

  • Clinical study protocols
  • Clinical study reports (CSRs)
  • Investigator brochures (IBs)
  • DSURs
  • Patient narratives
  • ICH/FDA/GCP/eCTD compliance
  • QC review and document management
  • Oncology/rare disease writing

Role summary

Lead medical writer responsible for planning, writing, editing, formatting, and QC of clinical regulatory documents such as protocols, IBs, ICFs, DSURs, CSRs, and patient narratives in compliance with ICH/FDA/GCP and eCTD requirements for a CRO/clinical research organization.
