Are you driven to turn complex science into narratives that change decisions for healthcare professionals and improve life for patients? Do you thrive at the intersection of scientific rigor, creative storytelling, and rapid delivery at scale? As the senior scientific content authority within GCS Creative Services, you will shape the scientific voice behind our most visible HCP, patient, and internal communications. You will partner closely with a Creative Lead and an Experience Lead from intake to final delivery, ensuring every word is accurate, compliant, on-brand, and designed for the channel and audience at hand.

Content Standards and Governance: Maintain templates, glossaries, style guides, and taxonomies aligned to GCS standards. Advance best practices for routing, file hygiene, modular content development, and content reuse.

Creative Briefing and Concepting: Contribute to reverse briefs, ideation, and creative reviews alongside Creative and Experience Leads. Provide scientific perspective and feasibility guidance early in the process to de-risk execution. Quality Assurance and Review: Serve as the final quality checkpoint for all written content prior to MLR and stakeholder delivery, ensuring scientific accuracy, citation integrity, brand alignment, and compliance readiness.

AI-Enabled Efficiency: Support AI initiatives in content creation. Use AI-assisted writing and research tools to accelerate development while maintaining scientific rigor and regulatory compliance.

Mentorship and Capability Building: Coach junior writers and near-shore partners on scientific storytelling, referencing standards, MLR expectations, and emerging formats and channels. Foster a culture of scientific excellence and continuous improvement.
