Job Description
Our Social Media Strategy team plays a critical role in helping pharma and biotech brands show up meaningfully across digital channels.

This team lives and breathes social, staying closely attuned to trends in news and culture and knowing how to respond in a way that feels relevant and impactful. They’re creative storytellers who move quickly, think strategically, and genuinely enjoy the work they do.
At Real Chemistry, we’re always looking to connect with exceptional experienced social strategists (Senior Manager through Director level) who are passionate about healthcare, deeply fluent in social ecosystems, and thrive in a fast-paced agency environment.
We operate in a hybrid model, with offices in New York City, Boston, Lambertville, Chicago, San Francisco, and Carmel. We are also open to remote candidates. For some roles, travel or close proximity to a client location may be required, which will be discussed throughout the interview process.
