At USP, we believe that scientific excellence is driven by a commitment to fairness, integrity, and global collaboration.

Brief Job Overview This position is working at 50% capacity (part time) for approx. 20 hours a week, and requires a Monday-Thursday schedule, 5 hrs/day. This role will work onsite in Rockville, MD 2 days a week and offer remote work the other days. The Senior Public Affairs Opinion Writer will play a critical role in driving USP’s external voice by producing quality editorial content that supports public and regulatory policy reforms. Some of the areas of focus include expediting patient access to quality medicines, advanced therapies, building a more secure and resilient medicine supply chain, and global health topics. This role is designed for a seasoned writer with experience in the life sciences and public health sectors who can translate complex issues into clear, credible, compelling, and persuasive narratives that convey a point of view to influencers and decision makers. This role requires a strong understanding of the policy, regulatory, and market forces shaping life sciences and the pharmaceutical supply chain. The writer will consistently surface editorial influencing opportunities that align to USP’s mission and strategy translating them into crisp, credible editorial content. This is not a science writing role. Instead, the focus is on editorial, issues driven content that conveys USP’s point of view to policymakers, regulators, industry leaders, trade associations, patient organizations and others to expand stakeholder perspectives and enlist them in USP’s work. The ideal candidate is a strong writer first — someone who can work under ambiguity, manage multiple stakeholders, and shift between issues and points of view — while also working with executives and learn to communicate in their voice while serving as a thought partner to communications managers in shaping and executing messaging strategy.
