About HartSpan
HartSpan is a founder-led DTC wellness brand delivering clean, effective, doctor-developed solutions for common health conditions. Our mission is to extend healthy years of life and promote longevity through natural, science-backed alternatives to pharmaceuticals.

From concept through execution, you’ll drive acquisition and retention by owning the entire creative lifecycle—with strong support from the founder and a small team of specialists. We’re looking for a self-directed creative leader who thrives in fast-paced environments, thinks strategically, and executes with precision.
