What We Are Looking For:

As a Community Strategist in a highly regulated sector like healthcare, finance, or legal tech, you hold a vital role in shaping how our brand connects online. Reporting to the Strategy Director, your mission is to build a thriving community from the ground up by establishing deep trust, swiftly addressing audience issues, and ensuring absolute alignment with strict regulatory compliance. You prove that a regulated brand can still be a cultural leader; you're as comfortable navigating data privacy and sensitive disclosures as you are centering the brand in internet culture, trends, and daily conversations. Equal parts charismatic storyteller (think "Most Friendly" on-camera energy) and protective brand guardian, you are the essential bridge that allows us to engage authentically.
