  • Map the Journey to Success: Develop comprehensive customer decision journeys, illuminating the path audiences take and informing our planning teams on how to best reach them at every stage.
  • Uncover the Big Idea: Analyze cultural trends, competitive landscapes, and brand insights to unearth the key idea that will resonate across all media touchpoints and fuel a cohesive brand story.
  • Build the Blueprint: Design the communications architecture that guides media plan development, ensuring every tactic and investment decision aligns with the overarching strategy.

What You'll Bring:

  • 7 years of experience in communications planning, account planning, media planning, brand planning, or connections planning.
  • A deep understanding of consumer behavior within media, particularly channels relevant to healthcare marketing. (Healthcare experience is a plus, but not required - we value transferable skills and a passion for learning!)
  • A knack for simplifying the complex, translating data and insights into clear, compelling narratives.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills – you can clearly articulate your ideas and influence decisions.
  • A collaborative and "can-do" attitude with the ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment while juggling multiple projects.
  • A passion for innovation and challenging the status quo with a positive, constructive approach.
  • Familiarity with digital and traditional media channels and how to effectively deploy them within an omnichannel, full-funnel media approach.
