The past year has been the most successful for Lucid Group
yet. They have celebrated their 10th year of business, launched their new
Strategic Consultancy, won a Queen’s Award for Enterprise and, earlier this
month, been shortlisted for a number of Communiqué 2017 awards. To continue
supporting Lucid’s successes in the future, the company has been stepping up
their recruitment.
At the beginning of June, Melody Jimenez joined Lucid Partners
in their London office as a medical writer. Melody started her career in
medical communications in 2016. In her new role at Lucid, she wants to continue
to spread knowledge that has the potential to change patients’ lives.
Katie Greenhalgh also joined the London-based team in late
June as a senior medical writer. Katie started working in medical
communications just over 3 years ago, after finishing her PhD in haematology.
“I love spending my working life contributing to advancing healthcare outcomes
for patients,” says Katie. “I was attracted to working with Lucid due to its
fantastic reputation in the medical communications industry.”
Welcome to Melody and Katie!
Working in Medical Communications has never been about the nine to five. Fusing science and language in the service of both clients and patients, this is typically a fast paced and demanding industry, but one which offers enviable flexibility, variety and intellectual challenge. Leading agency Lucid Group prides itself on the many growth and development opportunities it offers its people. In this article, Katherine Duxbury, Lucid’s Head of Medical, reflects upon her own bespoke working journey over the past 12 years and explains how creativity, collaboration and a passion for science have led to a rewarding, stimulating and self-curated career.
