Abbott is a global healthcare leader that helps people live more fully at all stages of life. Our portfolio of life-changing technologies spans the spectrum of healthcare, with leading businesses and products in diagnostics, medical devices, nutritionals and branded generic medicines.

At Abbott, you can do work that matters, grow, and learn, care for yourself and your family, be your true self, and live a full life. You’ll also have access to:

Career development with an international company where you can grow the career you dream of.
Employees can qualify for free medical coverage in our Health Investment Plan (HIP) PPO medical plan in the next calendar year.
An excellent retirement savings plan with a high employer contribution.
Tuition reimbursement, the Freedom 2 Save student debt program, and FreeU education benefit - an affordable and convenient path to getting a bachelor’s degree.
A company recognized as a great place to work in dozens of countries worldwide and named one of the most admired companies in the world by Fortune.
A company that is recognized as one of the best big companies to work for as well as the best place to work for diversity, working mothers, female executives, and scientists.

Lingo is redefining how people understand and engage with their own health — and we're looking for a Head of Copy who can match that ambition with world-class creative work. This is a leadership role for a creative who has built their foundation in copy and storytelling, and who brings the strategic depth to shape not just how we say things, but what we stand for and why it matters.

You'll partner closely with a Senior Visual Designer who owns the aesthetic craft, so your focus is squarely on the thinking, the words, and the strategy behind it all. You'll lead the creative vision across brand, campaigns, and content — and you'll be the connective tissue between business goals and breakthrough ideas.

This role reports directly to Director of Brand and Creative and sits at the intersection of brand strategy, creative leadership, and narrative development.

Requirements

~2 min read

Bachelors Degree
8–12 years of experience in creative roles, with a clear trajectory through copywriting and creative concepting
Proven track record leading creative strategy and execution for consumer brands — health, wellness, lifestyle, or technology experience a strong plus
A portfolio that demonstrates exceptional writing, smart strategic thinking, and the range to work across brand, digital, and campaign
Experience art-directing and collaborating with designers — you don't need to design, but you need to direct
Agency, in-house, or hybrid background welcome; experience working in fast-moving, founder-led or scale-up environments is a plus

A genuine love of language and a belief that great copy is a strategic act, not a finishing touch

The ability to zoom out to brand strategy and zoom in to a single headline with equal precision

Strong presenter — you can take a room through a creative story and make it land

Comfortable with ambiguity and energized by building; this is not a role for those who need all the answers before starting

Natural collaborator who makes the people around them better

Lingo sits at the forefront of a movement reshaping how people relate to their health — powered by Abbott's world-class science and driven by a team that thinks and moves like a challenger brand. This is a rare opportunity to lead creative at a brand with real purpose, real product, and real momentum.

We offer a competitive salary and benefits package, flexible working, and the chance to do some of the most meaningful work of your career.
