Swoop, a market leader in privacy-safe, award-winning omnichannel healthcare marketing, connects patients, healthcare providers (HCPs), and brands at scale across all channels. Our teams leverage the power of AI-driven technology combined with real-world data (RWD), first- and zero-party data, and engagement data, to empower pharmaceutical marketers to make faster, more precise decisions that improve patient outcomes.  

At Swoop, our mission is to create a future where technology seamlessly connects patients and HCPs in a privacy-safe way, improving the patient journey and driving better health outcomes. Swoop has experienced significant growth and demonstrated an unwavering commitment to innovation, talent development, and enhancing the patient experience.

We believe our people are our greatest asset. Swoop fosters a culture of innovation and continuous learning, providing employees with rich opportunities for professional growth. This commitment to our team earned us the "Best Places to Work" recognition from Business Intelligence Group in 2025, based on a survey of over 100 employees. We are driven by a patient-first philosophy and are passionate about leveraging technology to create a healthier future. 

If you're a driven professional seeking to make a real difference in healthcare marketing at a fast-growing, innovative company, join Swoop and help us revolutionize how brands connect with patients and HCPs. 

About the role

MyHealthTeam is looking for a Senior Editorial Director to lead the people and standards behind our content. A big part of this role is helping MyHealthTeam advance our use of AI in content development. That means hands-on experimentation, building team fluency, and making smart calls about where AI helps and where human editorial judgment is non-negotiable. 

We need someone who brings deep health content expertise, genuine enthusiasm for AI, and strong editorial leadership instincts. You’ll manage a team of about five developmental editors and five copy editors, reporting to the EVP of Content.

What you'll do

• Lead, mentor, and manage a team of developmental and copy editors, setting clear expectations, running regular 1:1s, and supporting career development.
• Build a culture of editorial excellence, curiosity, and continuous improvement across the team.
• In collaboration with the Director of Content Integrity, own editorial quality across our article portfolio: voice, structure, accuracy, and tone.
• Actively champion and experiment with AI tools for content development, editing workflows, and quality assurance.
• Help the broader content team build fluency and confidence with AI tools.
• Stay current on how AI is reshaping health content and bring that perspective to editorial strategy.
• Collaborate with the VP of Content Operations to ensure content is developed on time and within budget, with an eye on aggressive output goals.
• Partner closely with the SEO and CRM/Marketing teams to align editorial and distribution goals.
• Collaborate with the EVP of Content on longer-term editorial strategy and team development.
  

Qualifications

• 8+ years of editorial experience, including meaningful time managing editors
• Expertise in health content, ideally patient-facing or consumer health, and a deep understanding for what this audience needs

• Comfortable working cross-functionally with SEO and marketing stakeholders while holding the line on editorial standards
• A direct, thoughtful communicator with your team, your peers, and up
• Fully remote-capable and experienced managing distributed teams
• Willing to travel occasionally for team meetings and off-sites
