Thank
you
for
your
query.
If
you
are
interested
in
healthcare
and
medical
fields
but
also
wish
to
retain
your
research
skills
then
I
recommend
that
you
try
to
move
into
a
specialist
healthcare/medical
research
agency
where
you
can
combine
your
skills
and
interests.
Otherwise
it
may
be
worth
reconsidering
your
choice
of
career
and
looking
to
move
into
a
different
role
within
the
medical
sector.
Obviously,
there
are
lots
of
different
jobs
that
you
could
do
in
this
sector
so
you
would
need
to
investigate
further
to
decide
what
suits
you
best.

Thank
you
for
your
query.
As
I
am
a
specialist
in
Market
Research
Recruitment
I
can
only
be
of
limited
assistance
to
you.
However,
I
recommend
that
you
look
at
the
vacancy
pages
of
Marketing
Week
or
Marketing
Magazine
which
come
out
every
Thursday
as
you
may
see
Marketing
Assistant
roles
advertised
there.
Additionally,
you
could
apply
speculatively
to
the
Marketing
Director
of
companies
that
you
are
interested
in
working
for
or
contact
a
specialist
Marketing
Recruitment
Consultancy.
Good
luck
with
your
search.
