About the role
We are looking for a writer who works in German and English at the same standard.
Our readers are clinical and Tech. CMIOs, oncologists, pathologists and hospital IT leads, in German and English speaking markets. Writing for them takes precision, a working grasp of clinical vocabulary, and the discipline to say only what the evidence supports.
You do two things. You write kaiko's German-language material as original writing rather than translation. And you build our library of customer stories, interviewing the clinicians who use our product and writing the pieces yourself.
You work directly with the Head of Marketing.
This is a freelance engagement, retained, with an initial scope of six months and the intention to extend. You work remotely from the German-speaking region or the Netherlands, with occasional days in Zurich and Amsterdam.
Some areas of responsibility
Customer stories. You run the interviews with clinicians who use our product, write the articles, and carry them through hospital communications approval.
German-language writing across our website, campaign and event material. Written for a German-speaking clinical reader rather than translated. Around half your output is English originals.
Write up our roundtables, panels and webinars with hospital leaders as published articles, worth reading by people who were not in the room.
Copy for conferences and partner events in German and English, from session and booth text to invitations and follow-ups.
A German terminology and tone standard. Swiss and German clinical vocabulary, our register, and the words we do not use, in a document the team can hold to.
Requirements
About you
German writing at publication quality for a clinical audience.
Professional English writing, half of what you write will be English originals.
Five to ten years of professional writing, at least two of them in health, medtech, pharma or hospital communications.
You interview well. You get a specific, usable answer out of a clinician in a short slot, and you hear when the interesting story is not the one on your question list. You have interview-based published work to show for it.
A self-starter who operates with limited direction. You set your own brief, chase your own approvals, and ship without waiting for a perfect spec.
Nice to have
A clinical, hospital or diagnostics background, in any specialty.
Experience working through a hospital communications department, and the habit of planning timelines around approval rather than around the interview.
Experience supporting executive thought leadership or founder content.
We are excited to gather a broad range of perspectives in our team, as we believe it will help us build better products to support a broader set of people. If you're excited about us but don't fit every single qualification, we still encourage you to apply: we've had incredible team members join us who didn't check every box!
