We’re hiring an experienced and driven editor/writer/journalist

Do you want a role where you can use your excellent editing and writing skills to help empower a billion people? If so, we want to hear from you.
Come join our fast-growing, purpose-driven company in beautiful Stockholm, Sweden. Don’t live here yet? No problem – we’ll help you move and find a place to live in this wonderful city.
About the position
We are looking to hire an exceptional, versatile editor/writer/journalist who is passionate about communicating complex information in clear, consistent and sparkling prose. A background in science journalism is a definite asset, but an established record editing and writing in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment is essential.
You will work with our content team to create, edit and polish engaging, accurate, inspiring and well-written articles, guides and news posts about the low-carb ketogenic diet.
Why work for Diet Doctor
Diet Doctor is the world’s largest low-carb site, with about 500,000 daily visitors, 64,000 paying members and 25 full-time coworkers (about 45 people when including freelancers) – growing at a rapid pace. We strive to keep, or even exceed, our current growth to make the greatest possible positive impact on the world.
Our goal is to empower people everywhere to revolutionize their health – by making low carb simple.
We are funded by the people (through our optional membership), have no outside risk capital, and are owned by those who work here, all because we want to build a company that can do good for 100+ years.
We offer an attractive work environment filled with professionally engaged people, competitive salaries and the opportunity to become a co-owner. More importantly, we’ll give you the chance to work for a purpose-driven organization that exists to make the world a better place.
You’ll get the opportunity to travel internationally too, if you want that. Some of our coworkers regularly travel to low-carb related conferences all over the world. This could help you network with our international team of expert contributors.
Most of our full-time staff work together in a beautiful office in central Stockholm. So would you, if this position is right for you.
Don’t live in Stockholm? No problem – we’ll help you move here and find a place to live.
Timing not perfect? Reach out anyway – we’re willing to wait for the right person.
Alternatively: Do you know anyone who is a perfect match? Tell that person about this ad and get a free life-time Diet Doctor membership if that person is hired.

About the job
We want to hire a full-time editor/writer/journalist who will work with a growing content creation team to plan site content, create and/or edit original guides and articles, and update or re-write existing guides. Contributing to the creation of inspiring and influential stories for the daily news feed is also a key aspect of the job as is editing other writers’ work for consistency, clarity, simplicity, and trustworthiness.
Essential qualities
We are looking for an outstanding individual who can become a key part of our fast-growing company. You’ll need the following qualities to be considered for the job:
Diversity
We’re positively oriented towards diversity – we encourage diversity in skills, interests, religious and political beliefs, sexual orientation, gender, ethnicity, etc.
Summary
Our goal is to empower people everywhere to revolutionize their health, by making low carb simple. At least a billion people could benefit from eating fewer carbs, primarily but not exclusively people with obesity, type 2 diabetes and other problems related to metabolic syndrome. These people are currently not getting the support they deserve, and we aim to change that.
To achieve this goal, we need to work with fantastic people who are passionate about the enormous benefits keto and low carb can have for people, and who can help us create incredible products that make low carb simple.
Could you be one of those people? Do you have the essential qualities we’re looking for? Are you the right person to join our dynamic team of hardworking and passionate people striving to make the world a better place?

I swim every day for 80 minutes and scuba dive 2x year for 10 days each trip.
Why did I buy a house in Thailand? To push myself forward. I want to learn and grow every year.
Yummy food in Thailand can be low carb.
Fifteen years ago there were no fat people in Thailand. I weighed 190 lbs and was the fattest person in Chiang Mai. Kind Thai strangers in restaurants would advise me NOT to eat everything on my plate.
Now, American fast food is invading. The Thai are getting fat. I’m watching huge health problems develop as diabetes proliferates. I’m no longer the fattest person in Chiang Mai. Sad!

I feel , I would be happy to be part of your team as a content writer / editor. As your website is growing up, you may be helped by adding people like me, who are from diverse cultural backgrounds.

I'm Myleen Sjödin. As the name suggests, jag talar svenska flytande och har engelska som modersmål. I believe I would be perfect for this job because I am coming with the tumultuous experience of yoyo dieting and now becoming an avid promoter of the low carb lifestyle. I am a firm believer of the Diet Doctor site and have been a fan of Dr. Fung (who lives in Toronto, where I coincidentally reside!), I think it is serendipity that I happen to live in Toronto, speak fluent Swedish and am following the Keto diet and IF for some time now with great success. That's why I can bring a lot of passion and insight with a Writer role, but also do extensive research on the science of this life-changing diet.
Besides that, I have been a professional Writer for almost 20 years and blogger for about 6 years covering Swedish food, culture and the Nordic lifestyle. We actually intend to move back to Sweden in 3 years time. It will be a wonderful opportunity to contribute to your site. If this sounds like a match made in heaven, please write me at myleensjodin@yahoo.com. I will also submit an application and CV.
Warm Regards,
Myleen Sagrado Sjödin
