Drive end-to-end DTC pharma copy and MLR submissions for a consumer brand.

Own DTC copy across brochures, websites, and campaigns.
Must-have: 8-12 years of agency pharma DTC experience with patient-facing work.
Standout: Deep MLR fluency and ability to defend work to clients.

Lead copy across the full range of DTC deliverable: long-form patient brochures, branded and unbranded websites, and concept-driven campaign work across both channels.
Concept original campaign territories, branded and unbranded, to shape what this brand says and how it says it.
Translate complex clinical data into patient language that resonates without oversimplifying. The science is dense. Your copy isn’t allowed to be.
Own MLR submissions end-to-end: annotating every claim, pulling every reference, and building manuscripts that give the review team exactly what they need the first time.

8-12 years of agency experience with real pharma DTC work in your portfolio — patient-facing campaigns, long-form copy, and website content.
Deep pharma annotation fluency. You know how to reference a claim, structure a manuscript for MLR, and navigate a review cycle.
A consumer writer’s instinct. You write toward emotion, not away from it.
You’ve done serious DTC pharma work and are hungry to go deeper, with Launch Experience a plus.
Can present and defend work to clients.
Non-negotiable: Real, recent DTC pharma experience. Not pharma-adjacent. Not transferable skills. Not HCP work reframed as consumer. Portfolios without this work will not be considered.
