Medical Writer

Technology is literally changing the world around us and yes, some people tend to focus on why that change is bad - it makes us uncomfortable; it breaks our status quo, it feeds our uncertainty - but at Orchard we choose to see it differently. Technology can make lives better. It can make businesses better, brands better and experiences better. It can be the change we want to see in the world. Which is why we, at Orchard, rally around a single purpose: to invent better outcomes through creativity and technology. Those better outcomes can only exist in the context of people irrespective of if we label them users, customers, patients, clients or even staff. **The Opportunity** We're on the lookout for talented Medical Writers with solid Medical Education experience to work in our Healthcare team to deliver amazing results for our clients.
