  • Translate complex medical and scientific data into concise, accurate, and accessible summaries.
  • Ensure consistency, clarity, and compliance with company and regulatory standards.
  • Deliver high-quality output within agreed timelines.

  • Strong attention to detail and ability to maintain accuracy under tight timelines.
  • Strong scientific knowledge with ability to interpret, analyze, and paraphrase complex content.
  • Preferred exposure to neuropsychiatry, schizophrenia, and immunology.
  • Ability to work independently and collaboratively with cross-functional teams.
  • Why Join Us?

  • Contribute to projects that directly support healthcare professionals and ultimately benefit patients.
  • Cultivate a long-term association as we are constantly looking for reliable freelancers who can form an ongoing partnership with our team, not just short-term project contributors.
  • Enjoy the flexibility of freelance work while having the opportunity for consistent, long-term assignments.
  • Exposure to diverse therapy areas and global standards in Medical Information will help strengthen your expertise.
  • Your contributions will be recognized and valued, as we consider freelancers a core extension of our medical writing team.

  • Deliver work of consistently high quality, on time, and in line with agreed requirements.
  • Timely communication and proactive updates on project progress.
  • Strict adherence to data protection, confidentiality agreements, and compliance standards.
  • Ability to pick up on nuances and ensure scientific and editorial accuracy.
  • Willingness to take on urgent deliverables and adjust to evolving project needs.
  • About the Company

    At Cactus Life Sciences (cactuslifesciences.com), we believe the future of medical communications lies at the intersection of science, technology, and human connection.
