CMC, part of McCann Complete Medical, is a leading global medical communications agency established 25 years ago, with offices in the UK (Macclesfield, Manchester and Glasgow) and US (New Jersey and California). We are incredibly proud of the work we do and the people we employ. CMC people work to extremely high standards, support their colleagues and delight their clients.

We are now looking to expand our successful team across a spectrum of roles, and we are looking for Editorial Coordinators based in either Macclesfield or Glasgow to assist our scientific team in the delivery of a wide range of editorial projects.

Main responsibilities of our Editorial Coordinator:

- Supporting the senior team members with the delivery of larger projects

We are looking for Editorial Coordinator candidates with the following skills, experience and attributes:

- Relevant or transferable administration experience, ideally within the medical communications or pharmaceutical industries, although this is not essential.

- Attention to detail and the ability to work under pressure to tight deadlines are essential.

- As we are a busy team with high standards, exceptional administrative and organisational skills are also critical for the role.

- The ideal candidate will be an enthusiastic individual, a good team player and an excellent communicator. 

- Competence in the use of Microsoft Office with a particular emphasis on the optimal use of spreadsheets and databases is important.

We offer careers not just jobs, continuously fulfilling our commitment to invest in our team members and meet their professional development needs. We build roles around the strengths and aspirations of our staff and in doing so have become an employer of choice for over 100 employees worldwide.

The wide variety of clients we work with allows our staff to broaden their experience through multiple, exciting projects.
