• Craft and socialize multi-year narrative frameworks and voice guidelines that unify Bio-Rad's messaging across regions and channels. 
• Guide campaign and product messaging from concept through execution for marquee campaigns and enterprise initiatives. 
• Align content strategy with SEO, ABM, and demand-generation goals so editorial work drives measurable business outcomes. 
• Mentor people leaders and senior writers, building succession pipelines and raising the editorial bar. 
• Partner with Legal, Regulatory, and brand ambassadors to uphold content governance and quality. 

What You Bring: 

• Education: BA/BS in English, Communications, Journalism, Life Sciences, or a related field.
• Work Experience: 14-16 years of professional editing experience in B2B science, healthcare, or technology.
