Executive Bio and Media Kit

About this task

This specialty pharma company in diagnostics (5,000+ employees) is looking for a director PR & Communications for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Bios, photos, facts and key messages.

It is a self-contained job: scope, checklist and price are agreed before you start. It works in life sciences, where documents are versioned and reviewed in a fixed order.

The work is fully remote, but the company can only contract people who live in New York, so this one is for residents there. Most people do this on weekday evenings; replies inside the working day are not expected. About 2 hours a week should overlap with the team's day (ET).

What you deliver

• Prepare a media kit with executive bios, boilerplate and approved facts.
• A 20-minute walkthrough call, or a recorded screen share if you prefer
• One round of edits after the company's review is included
• The finished deliverable in the agreed file format, with sources and assumptions listed

How the work runs

• Day 1: kickoff call and access to the files
• Days 2 to 4: the work, with questions answered the same day
• Last day: delivery and a short walkthrough

Duration: 2 to 3 weeks. Accepted when the output matches the agreed checklist and the sample check passes; the recruiter confirms by e-mail.

Tools

• You work as an independent contractor: you report your own income, and your recruiter sends the statements your accountant needs.
