Be Accountable and Responsible

As our Marketing Communications Coordinator, you will have the opportunity to impact MERGE’s business and its growth significantly. As part of the content team, you will be responsible for content writing and editing for healthcare-focused accounts to communicate services and differentiators to various audiences, emphasizing web content best practices and effective copywriting to convert audiences to action. Assignments will cover original, expanded, or revised content and will likely include interviewing subject matter experts or clinical leadership teams and research on healthcare topics to inform writing. Additional responsibilities include working with clients on defining project deliverables and coordinating with other project writers for consistent voice and tone.

Examples of assignments include:

  • Web content writing for healthcare clients
  • Service-line specific writing (e.g.: cardiovascular, orthopedics, cancer, etc.)
  • Blogs (ex: disease prevention screenings or healthy living tips)

  • Write clear marketing copy to promote our client's products/services (blog, social media, banners and web)
  • Review of current web copy to identify missing content and recommend pages to write based on healthcare website best practices
  • Collaborate with the project team to ensure the writing process is integrated with the website build process so copy aligns with appropriate design specifications
  • For hospital and health system writing, assignments generally do not include detailed clinical information (ex: health encyclopedia)

These are the qualifications we’re looking for

  • Minimum of three related healthcare and/or hospital-focused writing experience
  • Experience interviewing subject matter experts and clinical leadership
  • Advanced grammar, spelling, proofreading, and editing skills
  • Detail-oriented with the ability to manage multiple projects from inception through execution
