- representing assigned work at internal and external (client) meetings as required (e.g., project status, author interactions, client publication committee meetings, etc)
- understanding client publication and communication plans as required (e.g., impact on project timelines, appropriate congress and journal venues for assigned client/therapy area, relevance to client drug development planning, etc)

5% of your time will be devoted to assisting in the management of (your) medical writing resources, including but not limited to, responsibility for:

- collaborating with the Senior Medical Writer / Scientific Manager and Account Managers to help ensure adherence to agreed-upon timelines (e.g., project status reports, proactive flagging of problems, time/resource limitations/availability, etc)
