Job Description

Withings aims to be the most trusted name in clinical-grade smart health devices. Already the leading innovator of smart scales, our product portfolio includes connected scales, connected blood pressure monitors, sleep monitors, thermometers, and health/activity wearables. Designed to help anyone easily manage health from home, Withings devices make better health an enjoyable part of daily life, and this helps us to achieve our most important goal: changing people’s lives.

Today, our products power a diverse and growing set of health programs, centered on disease prevention and promoting healthy habits. From chronic condition management to remote patient monitoring and clinical research, Withings has dedicated solutions that provide the richest array of accurate, real-world data, thanks to our complete ecosystem of award-winning connected health devices.

We are looking for a new member of the team to act as a freelance writer. As a Senior Copywriter for Programs, you will be responsible for helping lead the English content for new in-app programs.

Best suited for an experienced writer who ideally has some experience in science-based health and wellness content. We seek someone who can fact check but keep a voice that can inspire and engage.

Working within a global team, this role will write and edit content that helps people make the best decisions for their health. Someone who will go the extra mile to question assumptions and source it or secure an original quote or personal story instead of relying on wholly general content that AI could produce.

This is a remote role, with the opportunity to be hybrid if the candidate location is in the Boston Metro area. The expectation is for this individual to work 20-40 hours per week. This is a contract temporary role.

Requirements

The ideal candidate will have:

  • Experience creating innovative, original content to inform, entertain, and engage a curious tech-savvy audience
  • An exceptional command of English grammar, spelling, and punctuation
  • A desire to brainstorm content topic ideas
  • The ability to work quickly but with attention to detail
  • A deep interest in health, tech, data, and communication with a cause
  • Knowledge of major conditions (e.g. hypertension, diabetes) and familiarity with basic medical terminology a plus

The Day to Day

  • Write content that serves the programs from snappy headlines to long-form articles
  • Edit existing articles to new specifications, maintaining high quality throughout
  • Brainstorm new content as needed, from article themes to general content areas
  • Fact-check, source, and update content as needed

Requirements

  • At least 5+ years of relevant writing / editorial experience, with health experience preferred.
  • Understand health reporting best practices
  • Strategic thinker who can balance innovative approaches with business objectives
  • Write and edit quickly while keeping a conversational tone.
  • Ability to conceive new concepts within themes

A Bachelor’s degree and a minimum of 5 years of related work experience are required; or an advanced degree with + years of experience. Journalists looking to transition to UX/app writing are encouraged to apply. Attracted by new technologies, you are naturally curious and can create compelling stories that show the benefits of technology while also inspiring people to unlock better health.

Please provide a cover letter. A showcase site / presentation of samples is a plus. Do not hesitate to highlight any related professional experience, even if outside of health content writing!
