Hi I'm Sian, I am a Global Medical Director I started my career in agency around 20 years ago, first as a medical writer and later as an editorial director. I am also an introvert. I would say I don't fit the typical mould of a corporate/Pharma success story but that provides a unique opportunity as in my opinion, and I may be biased, agency experience provides a fantastic foundation for Pharma. I can write papers, I have an excellent knowledge of what is compliant and what isn't, through pitching I am used to coming up with creative ideas at pace. I have worked across therapy areas and I've had to upskill myself quickly. I have a broad skill set outside of medical communications from advanced video editing, social media planning and website building. I am also not alone, if you are here likely you have some of these skills and more.
