Job Description Title : Senior Account Executive / Account Manager

Role: It's hard to imagine a world in which there are no antibiotics, no relief from common illnesses like asthma and diabetes, or hope of new treatment for fatal diseases. The medicines that are available for doctors to prescribe are made, and most of them were discovered, by pharmaceutical companies. In 2006, pharmaceutical companies in the UK spent £3.3 billion on pharmaceutical research and development - that's an investment of around £9 million every day. To put it in context, about one quarter of all UK industry-supported research and development comes from the pharmaceutical industry.
Working across two pharma accounts, this is an excellent opportunity to work and gain knowledge within this industry.
