Account Manager

Healthcare Consultancy Group (HCG) is the global healthcare communications partner for pharma and biotech that accelerates the impact of medical science.

HCG boldly defines the healthcare communications landscape at the convergence of people, purpose, science, and technology, driving the impact that pharma needs to realize the promise of innovative medicines.

We’ve created a unique model of four powerhouses—Commercial & Marketing, Medical Affairs, Publications, Regulatory—that enables hyperconnected, audience‑centric engagement that delivers health impacts for our clients.

Why? Science requires it. HCPs demand it. Patients deserve it. Pharma inspires it.

We accelerate the impact of science.

Scientific discovery moves humanity forward, creating better ways to connect, to care, to live. The innovations our clients create not only improve lives but save them. We work every day to maximize that impact.

With the unrivaled ability to define what’s next, we keep clients ahead of the evolving industry landscape. Equally expert in the science and the humans behind it, we interrogate our client’s challenge to identify real opportunity. Our industry foresight is matched with relentless execution, and we partner with clients to ensure their story connects with the right audience when it matters most.

Together, we move medicine closer to patients. Together, we accelerate the impact of science.
