If you are a digital expert, you could be involved in setting the digital strategy for one of our client’s campaigns, or in analysing the effectiveness and technical performance of an existing campaign.

If you are an experienced marketer or communicator, you might be helping us to win business, and could be managing key client relationships.

The company

Creation Healthcare is a digital engagement strategy consultancy focused on healthcare. We’ve developed a specialist understanding of the opportunities and issues our clients face when it comes to digital engagement, and we’re helping them to plan for, achieve and measure some great results.

The scope of our work is broad, ranging from research and analysis, development of strategies and planning for their implementation, informing and envisioning stakeholders, and monitoring and measuring engagement campaigns.

We’re not an agency – we don’t carry out creative design, advertising, web development, public relations, or any of the creative services you would expect from a digital agency. Our clients choose us because we have ‘no axe to grind’ when it comes to digital strategy. So we’re in a unique position to provide truly independent advice about what is working.

Creation Healthcare has launched the third annual Healthcare Engagement Strategy Awards, which aim to recognise the most effective initiatives and outcomes in the healthcare engagement space in 2011.

Since their launch in 2009, the HES Awards have drawn attention to individual pioneers, online patient communities, social networking sites, hospitals, pharmaceutical companies and NGOs that were making a difference in the healthcare space, and providing ideas others could learn from.

Each year’s set of winners has featured life-changing ideas and initiatives that have inspired others in the following months, providing excellent examples of best practice in the industry.

This year, the judging panel that will be reviewing the final set of candidates will be comprised of all of Creation Healthcare’s associate consultants, who are present in 15 countries around the world and includes experts in pharmaceuticals, medical devices,clinical information, patient engagement and healthcare marketing. The review process will analyse all candidates and lead to a shortlist of finalists, who will be interviewed in detail.

Previous winners have shared their experiences and the lessons they learned, thus providing a platform others can build upon, proving that there are several credible ways of engaging online without having to resort to high-tech strategies.

The Healthcare Engagement Strategy Awards are promoted by Healthcare Engagement Strategy, Creation Healthcare’s monthly e-journal that is read by healthcare and pharmaceutical professionals.

To find out how to nominate an initiative that you believe is bringing the right people together in order to improve health outcomes, please see Healthcare Engagement Strategy’s section dedicated to the HES Awards.

Nominations will close on 31 December 2011, and the judging process will take place in January 2012.

The winners of the 2012 HES Awards will be announced in the February edition of the e-journal, which will be published at the end of January 2012.

In addition to its presence in London and Tokyo, Creation Healthcare has now opened an office in New York City.

“Creation Healthcare has been doing business in the United States for years, but opening an office in this location will allow us to collaborate more efficiently with US-based client and provide local hands-on support and implementation”, explains Daniel Ghinn, CEO & Director of Digital Engagement.

The recently opened office, located in the Chrysler building, will play a part in helping US-based industry players engage digitally and shape their strategies in the online space.

Today, we carry the same vision. Fourteen years have passed, and new and emerging channels offer even more potential to change people’s lives. We have seen the fulfilment of our original vision, that the Internet would start to transform the way businesses and organisations operate, in a positive way. And in the field of healthcare we have seen the greatest impact.

Last month I had the privilege of leading Creation Healthcare’s research into some of the world’s most effective use of emerging channels in the Healthcare Engagement Strategy Awards. This was the third year of the Awards and the experience was even more inspiring than ever. It’s not only the way that emerging channels are improving access to healthcare and health information; the greatest inspiration comes from the people behind the winning strategies – people in public health systems as well as commercial healthcare companies, who pioneer new approaches for the sake of improving the outcomes of healthcare engagement. These people prove once again one of our key principles at Creation Healthcare, that people are more important than technology in implementing life-changing healthcare engagement. These are the kinds of people we love to work with.

We operate in a growing market, and we’re developing a reputation as a trusted authority in our field. We are looking for a new member of our senior team to support new business opportunities and ensure the successful delivery of consultancy commissions to clients.

Specific areas of responsibility will include:

• Developing and following up on new business opportunities
• Identifying client needs and scoping solutions
• Resource planning and project pricing
• Taking the lead role in overseeing consultancy delivery
• Presentation of results to clients

The ideal candidate should have up to date experience in the following areas:

• The healthcare industry, including pharmaceuticals
• Digital and emerging channels of communication
• Research planning and presentation of results
• Designing and leading training workshops
• Team leadership

You should be an excellent communicator, in person and on paper and be capable of producing outstanding documents and presentations.

This role will include some international travel. You will primarily use English language, although any additional European languages will also be advantageous.

Creation Healthcare is a consultancy with a heart to seriously make a difference to the world of healthcare. If this sounds like you, and you have the relevant experience, we’d love to speak with you about this role.

This is a full time role. You will be primarily home-based, with visits to Creation Healthcare’s offices in London or elsewhere, or to client sites, as required. You should have a full driving license and your own vehicle. An excellent remuneration package will be provided.
