You will own two things, and do them well. First: the public voice of our CEO (Dr Aifric Boylan, GP and Medical Director) and our CIO/CTO (Jeremy Forrester). Strategy, calendar, ghostwriting, a weekly publishing rhythm including on LinkedIn. Both profiles should read as credible industry voices, not brochure pages. Second: earned media for the business. Build and work a tight list across health trade, digital health and business titles. Pitch, follow up, land coverage. Bylines and features that also earn quality editorial backlinks. You will also keep a one-page group narrative current, and a short issues pack so we are not improvising if scrutiny arrives. All of it inside AHPRA advertising guidelines and TGA rules on prescription medicines. You will not run ads, social channels, or patient acquisition. That sits with marketing. You will not be on a standing crisis roster. Two days only works if you already have the relationships. You will not be building a media list from scratch.
