Full-Time | Hybrid (Riverside / Los Angeles, CA) | Reports to: President & CEO | Domestic & International Travel Required
Are you a public health professional with a passion for campaigns, communications, and community impact - and the project management discipline to bring complex, multi-stakeholder initiatives across the finish line? Do you want to apply your public health training in a dynamic, mission-driven environment that spans medical outreach, global health engagement, and strategic media? If so, we want to hear from you.
ABOUT 3DI COMPANIES
3DI Companies is a family office with a portfolio spanning healthcare management, consulting, education, and investment operations. Our entities operate at the intersection of clinical excellence, academic leadership, and strategic enterprise. Our principals engage regularly with high-profile figures - including international leaders, global health officials, and executives at institutions such as the World Health Organization and the World Bank - requiring a team that moves with precision, discretion, and cultural fluency.
THE ROLE
The Director of Media & Special Projects is a senior, front-facing leadership role at the heart of 3DI's public presence and programmatic impact. We are looking for a public health-trained professional - ideally with a Master of Public Health or comparable graduate credential - who brings a genuine interest in healthcare communications, community health education, and global health engagement, and who has the project management acumen to execute across a range of complex initiatives.
At its core, this is a campaign and project management role in a healthcare context. You will own the coordination, execution, and accountability across a portfolio of public health programs, digital media initiatives, and special events - directing external vendors, agencies, and contractors to deliver high-quality outcomes aligned with 3DI's brand and mission. You do not need to be a hands-on media producer, but you must bring enough fluency in health communications and digital strategy to set direction and evaluate the work of creative partners effectively.
Special projects include the African Primary Healthcare Foundation (APHF) medical outreach programs, local education initiatives, a prospective startup venture programming space, an ongoing media education series, and fundraisers and special events. You will engage regularly with international leaders, global health officials, institutional executives, and media partners, and must represent 3DI with poise, cultural awareness, and professionalism at all times.

Presentations & External Engagement
- Prepare polished, visually compelling presentations for the CEO and leadership for conferences, donor engagements, board meetings, and public events

- Evaluate vendor performance and ensure accountability to cost, quality, and deadline commitments
- Mentor and develop junior staff or contractors as the team scales
Digital Strategy & Media Oversight
- Set and own the overarching digital and social media strategy across all 3DI entities, ensuring a cohesive, professional, and mission-aligned brand presence
- Direct external vendors and contractors for web development, design, content production, and multimedia delivery - serving as the internal client and quality gatekeeper
- Manage content calendars, social media platforms, and audience engagement strategies across channels
- Brief creative partners clearly and evaluate deliverables against brand and quality standards
- Monitor analytics and performance metrics; translate insights into strategic direction for external teams
