Job Summary

Drive MoldCo’s partnerships and community growth by vetting affiliates, managing partnerships, and building trusted patient-facing networks.

  • Own end-to-end affiliate lifecycle from sourcing to activation and ongoing relationship management.
  • Must-have: 5+ years in partnerships or affiliate marketing, healthcare preferred.
  • Standout: Deep experience vetting clinical partners and managing compliance in regulated settings.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Prepare tailored partnership materials for each meeting: partner-specific decks, positioning docs, talking points, competitive context
  • Conduct in-depth pre-meeting research and due diligence on prospective partners: audience, clinical credibility, market position, brand alignment
  • Handle all follow-up: send materials, coordinate next steps, track commitments, make sure nothing slips
  • Maintain the partnership CRM and pipeline so leadership always has a current view of where every conversation stands
  • Draft partnership proposals and co-marketing frameworks for CEO review
  • Manage active partnerships: regular check-ins, performance tracking, relationship health, and escalation before issues become problems
  • Support partnership closure: coordinating internal resources, timelines, and deliverables to move from conversation to signed agreement
  • Run the affiliate lifecycle end to end: sourcing, due diligence, outreach, activation, and ongoing relationship management
  • Vet every partner rigorously: clinical credibility, audience alignment, national reach, brand safety. We move at the speed of trust. Every affiliate must be someone we’d emphatically endorse to patients
  • Manage tracking, attribution, payouts, compliance documentation, and performance reporting
  • Maintain and improve the vetting framework so every new affiliate goes through a consistent, repeatable process
  • Own daily presence in the communities where mold-affected patients live: Facebook groups, Reddit, health forums
  • Become a recognized face. Not a brand account, but a trusted person patients know by name
  • Build relationships with group administrators and community leaders
  • Plan and manage educational webinars and community events, with topics driven by what patients are actually asking about
  • Provide ongoing education on mold toxicity, testing options, and treatment pathways. Build trust without making clinical claims
  • Build and manage the outreach pipeline for podcast bookings, journalist relationships, and media appearances
  • Research and vet shows: functional health, environmental illness, longevity, chronic illness. Evaluate audience fit and host credibility before recommending
  • Prepare guest briefs, talking points, and follow-up materials for each appearance
  • Track pipeline metrics: outreach volume, booking rate, audience reach, and downstream patient attribution

Requirements

  • 5+ years in partnerships, community management, affiliate marketing, or relationship-driven growth roles
  • Healthcare background preferred. You understand the regulatory environment, patient sensitivity, and what it means to market a clinical service responsibly
  • Working knowledge of FTC regulations for healthcare marketing: testimonial rules, disclosure requirements, claim substantiation
  • Exceptional attention to detail. Partner vetting, QC review, compliance documentation, and brand safety all require precision. In healthcare, errors have real consequences
  • Outstanding written and verbal communication. This role is writing-intensive: partnership materials, community posts, outreach emails, webinar hosting, media coordination
  • Ability to manage multiple high-stakes relationship threads at once: CEO partnerships, affiliate partners, community leaders, and media contacts all running in parallel
  • Comfortable speaking credibly about clinical topics without overstepping. You know the line between education and medical advice
  • Operational rigor. You can maintain a CRM, run a QC workflow, track compliance docs, and make sure every follow-up happens. Nothing slips

Preferred

  • You already have relationships with podcast hosts and producers in health, wellness, functional medicine, or chronic illness. You can start booking in weeks, not months
  • You bring a network of affiliate or referral partners in healthcare: practitioners, coaches, health creators you can activate quickly
  • You’re already active in mold toxicity or chronic illness patient communities. You understand the language, the concerns, and the trust dynamics of this specific patient population
  • You’ve supported executive-level partnership conversations before: preparing materials, managing follow-up, coordinating closure
  • You’ve managed content QC or editorial workflows in a regulated industry (healthcare, finance, legal)
  • You have experience in DTC health, telehealth, or functional medicine
