Design and manage content maintenance editorial and clinical review workflows and production processes, ensuring efficient throughput, clear roles and responsibilities, and adherence to timelines and quality standards. Lead cross-functional content planning, partnering with licensing, marketing, product, and clinical stakeholders to maintain a prioritized and continuously updated content roadmap. Manage day-to-day content operations, including assigning work, tracking progress, resolving bottlenecks, and ensuring deadlines and service expectations are consistently met. Provide editorial leadership and direction to writers, editors, and Harvard Medical School faculty reviewers, ensuring all content meets standards for clinical accuracy, clarity, tone, and consistency. Supervise and mentor editorial staff and/or freelancers, fostering a high-performing, collaborative editorial team. Partner closely with the licensing team to maintain and enhance the value of the licensed content portfolio, ensuring contractual obligations for currency and quality are met. Support and shape the .edu to .org transition, aligning content structure, quality, and prioritization with evolving audience, SEO, and revenue strategies. Monitor and analyze content performance and health metrics, using data to inform editorial decisions, refine priorities, and continuously improve content quality and impact.
