PR & marketing agencies
Senior-level healthcare PR expertise on tap
An overstretched account team?
A challenging story that needs sharpening ?
Junior staff that need newsroom training?
From time to time, your team may want knowledgeable, well-connected and reliable healthcare PR expertise on a flexible basis. Somebody who can pick up a brief quickly, work independently and deliver without hand-holding, fully aware of the stakes and fluent in the regulatory guardrails that govern the way health and life science organisations talk to patients, healthcare systems and the wider public.
A resource you can turn to without the overhead, the long-term commitment or the risk - just ask my clients.
A steady stream of consolidations in agency land and the relentless march of AI, all set against the backdrop of an uncertain investment climate for both the life sciences industry and NHS suppliers means that your account teams are feeling the pressure more acutely than ever before.
In amongst this turbulence, having trusted freelance healthcare PR expertise on tap on a flexible basis can help you to successfully navigate that major media launch, pitches that require that specialist healthcare media insight or that discerning client that needs an expert media adviser.
‘Plug and play’ without the long-term risk
Using my media experience, my senior operational experience across two global agencies and my work partnering with dozens of specialist healthcare consultancies means that I can fit quickly into agency workflows of different sizes.
I offer senior level communications strategy, media insight and media relations expertise for one all-inclusive day rate.
I can hit the ground running with the minimum of hand-holding or a drawn out recruitment process.
A partner who understands the stakes
Nobody wants to get it wrong, but healthcare PR professionals have less room for casual mistakes than comms professionals in other industry sectors. The work may involve unpublished clinical data, regulated products, patients, political sensitivities or confidential commercial plans.
That’s where I can help. I’ve worked on crisis communications projects, conducted countless sensitive case study interviews, and worked on media campaigns that need to be delicately handled in order to meet the requirements of the ABPI Code of Practice.
