- Monthly reporting: placements secured, impressions/UVM, sentiment, share of voice vs. competitors
- Flag any coverage or quotes that risk disease-claim language before it runs

- Strong personalized pitch writing, editorial calendar planning, and founder byline development
- Working knowledge of FDA/DSHEA structure-function claim rules, with ability to flag disease-claim risk in coverage before it runs
- Remote work opportunity, but LA or NYC based (or strong LA/NYC media relationships) preferred
