Hi Reader

I am thrilled to announce that I am taking over the management of the MedComms Workbook service for freelancers in MedComms from its founder, Peter Llewellyn. We’re working together closely during the transition, and both hope it will go from strength to strength.

As part of this transition, we’ve launched a community on the Heartbeat platform for the Workbook subscribers. This online space is dedicated to fostering connections, sharing knowledge, and supporting freelancers. You can sign up here and choose a pricing plan to suit you – either £7.50 per month or £75 per year.

If you’re an existing Workbook subscriber but haven’t yet dipped your toe in the Heartbeat pool, you can use this link to get started – you won’t be charged until your current subscription expires.

We’ve got a great programme of exclusive events, including a session this Friday with Sarah Nelson about authentic marketing for freelancers, plus recordings of previous sessions and plenty of other resources.

I have been spending a lot of time on the freelancers with this new venture, but if you’re on this list because you’re hoping to launch your MedComms career, I’m not ignoring you!

If you’re in the UK, come along to the upcoming firstmedcommsjob.com event at Birmingham University on 27th June 2024. I’ll be giving a short overview of MedComms, perfect for those looking to get their careers off to a flying start.

Last year’s event was a fantastic experience, filled with enthusiastic future MedComms stars. If you plan to attend, please let me know — I’d love to meet and chat with you in person! For more details and to sign up, please visit the event page.

Additionally, I’m delighted to give a shoutout to the new newsletter by the fantastic Katia Chrysostomou. Katia’s insights are designed to empower you with practical advice for taking the next step in your career, from job searching to acing interviews. Discover more about Katia’s coaching services and other support at her website and sign up for her newsletter to get started on your journey to success.
