Job Title: Functional Medicine Nutrition Content Copywriter

Hours per month: Approximately 10

Payment: $40 per hour or a monthly project fee of $400 per month

Kerri Axelrod Wellness LLC is looking for an experienced content copywriter to support our growing functional nutrition practice. This role is ideal for a Functional Medicine Dietitian or Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS) (or in progress), who loves creating impactful, educational content and has a strong foundation in SEO best practices. Candidates should have prior training in functional medicine, particularly in gut health, the gut-brain axis, and hormone health, along with a practical understanding of perimenopause. The ideal candidate will also appreciate the importance of mindset and belief reprogramming in overcoming chronic health conditions, complementing a science-based approach with a holistic perspective.

If you’re passionate about helping others thrive through creating engaging, optimized content, this could be the perfect fit! This role requires excellent writing and copy-editing skills, attention to detail, the ability to meet deadlines without a lot of oversight, and a love of collaborating with a like-minded wellness team.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Write one in-depth blog post per month (1,500–2,000 words) focused on gut, mood, or hormone health topics, as well as client success stories.
  • Develop four monthly newsletters that feature repurposed blog content, client success stories, content roundups, and program highlights.
  • Collaborate with the team to align content with pre-planned quarterly topics.
  • Optimize blog posts for SEO by incorporating relevant keywords, internal links, and metadata.
  • Deliver all content via Notion and upload blogs and newsletters to our Kajabi platform.

The Ideal Candidate:

  • A Functional Medicine Dietitian or CNS with a talent for crafting educational content that inspires readers to take action (we’re not currently seeking a health coach for this role).
  • Able to translate complex, science-based information into digestible, client-centered language. While we expect evidence-based blogs, we prefer a writing style that’s engaging and accessible, not academic, and that understands the importance of using the exact language that our clients use over industry jargon.
  • Experienced in writing SEO-optimized content.
  • Exceptionally organized, detail-oriented, and able to meet deadlines with minimal oversight.
  • Skilled in copy-editing and committed to producing error-free work.
  • Enthusiastic about sharing client stories to educate and motivate.
  • Able to work independently but comfortable asking for help when needed.
  • Proficient in Notion (or willing to learn).
  • Appreciates flexibility and thrives in a role with consistent monthly deliverables.
  • Interested in growing with the practice and open to future projects as needed.

This role is perfect for someone seeking a unique, non-traditional role in functional medicine nutrition and who wants to be part of a wellness-driven business.
