Pharma Reporter

The Opportunity

Endpoints News is seeking an experienced, newsbreaking reporter to cover the pharmaceutical industry.

This is a time of huge change for drugmakers and patients. Company strategies are contending with the rise of China and major shifts to US government policy. Consumers are accessing drugs in new ways — and new competitors are moving to meet their demand. And while some companies are growing in size and power, others are stagnant or in decline, facing an uncertain future.

The right reporter won’t just follow these changes, they’ll define them for readers with original reporting, beat knowledge and a hunger to break news. Strong candidates will have a vision for the beat, an understanding of Endpoints’ mission and ambition, and a collaborative, team-first attitude.

The exact role will be shaped by the candidate. We seek to hire talent first, and build coverage around them. Successful applicants will have a background covering the business of healthcare (preferably biopharma), and a proven track record of clips showing vivid writing, competition-beating reporting and beat-defining ideas.

Endpoints is an ambitious, award-winning specialty news publication that covers the world of biopharma, healthcare, and technology, chronicling the people, money, companies and regulations that drive those industries.

This role will work closely with Deputy Editor Lydia Ramsey Pflanzer and the rest of the pharma reporting team. This is a work-from-home role, and candidates must be confident operating independently in a digital-first environment. The team works an East Coast schedule.
