Hi everyone. I’m new to the industry and looking to learn more about the average salaries of medical team members at agencies.
How much, on average, does a medical director in NYC make? A VP medical director? Thanks so much!

With an advanced scientific degree such as Pharm D, PhD, MD or Masters in Science but new to the industry, typically one would be considered for Research Associate or Associate Medical Director. With industry experience comes higher salaries. Salary can range from $80-120K depending on a variety of factors including agency size, public or private, if there is a therapeutic expertise etc.

And what is the pay increase if you are promoted?

hey man did you graduate as a pharmd? msg me

VP Med director range in NYC is ~$175-225k, typically with no bonus or a pretty small one. Note that the jump to SVP and above is considered a big one and a lot of people top out at the VP level.

Feeling like I’ve been “bait-and-switched”…

I’ve been interviewing at an agency with the intention of filling a Director role. Recruitment reached out soon after my last meet-and-greet interview (about 6 to 7 people total) to tell me the team thinks I would be best suited for an Associate Director role with a fast follow of a Director promotion.

Recruitment can’t tell me what feedback is creating this gap but also won’t stop mentioning the positive praise and feedback the team had for me.

Considering leaving my agency after just a couple months in pharma - feeling underutilized and stuck.

My question: do I leave this stint off my resume entirely? List the parent agency instead of the wellness arm? Pass it off as freelance? Not trying to be dishonest I just know this experience probably isn’t relevant when going out for non-pharma jobs.
