About The Role
Hims & Hers is seeking a Freelance Blog Writer to join our Editorial Content team as an independent contractor. Do you love scouring the internet for the latest, greatest, or sometimes strangest ways to keep your hair looking and feeling its best? Are you interested in dissecting and discussing the latest industry research to help people learn about their mental health? Does the thought of folks finding the right treatments to overcome their struggles in the bedroom make you feel warm and tingly?
If so, we want to connect!
Specifically, we’re looking for journalists, blog writers, columnists and creative writers who are passionate about everything health — hair care, mental health, sex, etc.
You Will
The successful freelance contributor will be nimble, collaborative and extremely passionate about telling the little stories that can make big differences.
You’re up to the challenge of impressing readers while also knowing how to wink at Google’s web crawlers along the way. Your writing is creative, informative and fun, but you also understand how keywords are used and why digital marketers are so obsessed with them. You know how to get the most SEO juice out of a topic while always putting the needs of the reader front and center.
You’re adept at keeping up with hard deadlines, making pivots on the fly and researching sometimes technical data (and distilling it into easily digestible bits of writing).
You’re skilled at distilling notes from strategists, editors, and medical reviewers to make each article the most compelling, technically accurate piece of info a discerning Googler could ask for.
We’re changing the way folks think about their healthcare — and that starts with a little expertise, a little hand-holding, and a lot of compassion for our customers.
These articles will be most peoples’ first touchpoint with the brand, so smart, accessible, and enjoyable content is key to starting that journey on the right foot.
