About Pharmaceutical Press
Pharmaceutical Press is the knowledge business of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society. We’re the world leaders in evidence-based pharmaceutical publications and guidance. Pharmacists and other health professionals trust us to provide expert analysis, educational support, webinars, and news that informs, supports and enhances their practice. We independently source, evaluate, and communicate and make practical medicines knowledge accessible worldwide. In the Publishing Directorate, the following teams work collaboratively to provide our world-class products: the Journals team; the Sales and Marketing team; the Technology team; the Product team, and the Editorial team (in which this role sits).
About The Team
Pharmaceutical Press publications are produced by an editorial team of pharmacists, pharmacy technicians and scientists, with a range of backgrounds and experience. A team with a diverse workload, we rely on good communication and work in a flexible, collaborative way to create high-quality medicines information for users of our content.
How we are currently working:
RPS supports and works in a hybrid way, which means you will be able to work from home; however, there will be an expectation for collaborative face- to-face working – on average and typically this may be something between 4–8 working days per month at our London Office.
