Who is Weber Shandwick ?

Our talented team build brands by finding connection points in the real world. We energise the right mix of talent, using the right platforms and latest technology to choreography stories that make a real and meaningful impact for some of the world’s leading brands and businesses e.g. Novartis, Pfizer, HSBC, Unilever, Ebay and IBM to name a few.

A little bit about us in Health: 

It’s never been a more challenging and exciting time to work in health communications. Artificial intelligence, data-driven insights and tangible tech solutions are all being used to communicate with a public – including patients, healthcare professionals and media – who are more engaged than ever before. At Weber Shandwick, we’ve always been on the front foot when it comes to innovation within the industry. 

 

What is the role? 

We are looking for an Account Director, Integrated Media to join one of the most exciting healthcare teams in the business, with a track record of securing prominent placements for scientific breakthroughs and unsung health injustices.
