Success in this position requires strong writing and editing skills, comfort managing multiple stakeholders and review cycles, and the ability to translate complex healthcare and pharmacy topics into clear, compelling stories that audiences actually want to read.
The role partners closely with communications, marketing, digital, legal, and clinical teams to plan, develop, and optimize content within a highly regulated environment.

- Technology Adoption: Advance responsible use of SEO, generative engine optimization, and emerging content technologies to improve discoverability, efficiency, and quality.
- Insight Application: Use audience, search, social listening, competitive, and performance insights to prioritize opportunities, manage narrative risk, and optimize the content portfolio.
