Current Open Positions:

HEALTHCARE EDITOR AND PODCAST MANAGER

Work hours: full time (40 hours/week, min.)
Salary Range: $95,000–$100,000 for candidates with the desired qualifications
Work Location: remote, with some travel required
Reports to: Executive Editor, Media and Content

About the role

Cambridge Innovation Institute publishes a growing portfolio of news websites and podcasts. We're looking for an editor for our Healthcare content area: a news website, a slate of podcasts, and reporting tied to our healthcare events. You'll report and write your own stories, work with external podcast hosts to set the editorial direction and manage their path from concept to release, working with our in-house audio engineers, designers, and tech support. You'll also handle a defined set of podcast operations across our podcast portfolio. Some travel to events is required.

Topic focus and responsibilities

Healthcare content area

  • IntegrativePractitioner.com, with a target of at least two articles a week, comprised of original reporting and occasional community contributions.
  • Healthcare podcasts: Medtech Talk and Breaking Health. Support external hosts on guest and topic planning, and work with our in-house audio engineers on production.
  • Helping develop and launch new podcasts beginning with the Integrative Practitioner Podcast, and others as the slate grows (concept, format, branding, possibly hosting, launch marketing)
  • Reported content connected to our healthcare events, including the Integrative Health Symposium, Medtech MVP, Food as Medicine Summit, Food as Medicine Policy & Research, the Digital Healthcare Innovation Summit, and other assigned events.
  • Day-to-day publishing for IntegrativePractitioner.com: scheduling stories in the CMS and approving press releases

Podcast operations across our portfolio

  • Reviewing finished episodes for content before release: factual accuracy, stumbles, and passages a host or guest asks to remove or redo
  • Sending timestamped content edit requests to our in-house audio engineers, who make the cuts
  • Requesting graphics from our design team
  • Creating the marketing brief for each podcast
  • Sending episode materials to hosts and marketing contacts
  • Maintaining host and contact routing so each show's materials go to the right people

These tasks are a defined, routine part of the role, supported by templates and checklists. They should take roughly a quarter to a third of your time and scale with the portfolio.

Snapshot of a typical month

  • Write or edit original articles for IntegrativePractitioner.com
  • Manage the workflow for the portfolio podcasts, from episode planning through marketing briefs, content review, and release
  • Report event-related content, such as previews, speaker and session coverage, interviews, and follow-up stories.
  • Handle podcast operations for the rest of the portfolio
  • Coordinate with external hosts and in-house audio engineers and designers
  • Work with the executive editor and other content leads on story ideas, cross-posting, and event and launch plans

Candidate qualifications

  • 5-8 years’ experience reporting and writing about scientific topics from both interviews and the published literature, covering conferences or live events, delivering and meeting deadlines on multiple media products
  • Experience with podcast editorial management, such as planning episodes, booking and coordinating guests and hosts, or reviewing episodes for content. (Audio editing and engineering are not required--our in-house engineers handle audio balancing and cleanup.)
  • A careful ear. You'll catch content problems on a listen-through and describe them precisely enough that someone else can fix them.
  • Strong editorial judgment, including how to evaluate press releases and commentaries
  • Organization and follow-through. You'll manage many small recurring tasks across many products and keep them from consuming the creative work
  • Comfort with a CMS and basic podcast tools. Curiosity about AI tools is a plus, since we use them in our editorial workflow
  • Ability to work independently and communicate clearly with a small team
  • Willingness to travel for events (some travel required)

Nice to have: experience hosting a podcast, familiarity with integrative health, medtech, or digital health.

Why this role is appealing

  • You can own a content area from idea to publication, rather than processing other people's work
  • Room to grow: new shows and event content mean the role expands as the portfolio does
  • Direct connection to our healthcare events and the communities around them
  • Templates, checklists, and AI tools that keep the routine work lean
  • A small, collaborative team led by an executive editor who values editorial independence
