Just Health announces new senior hire and promotion

Just Health Communications has announced an internal promotion and a new senior hire, as part of its ongoing efforts to bolster its medical comms capabilities.

Jo Hewitt has been promoted to join the senior management team in the role of director. She has been with the agency for six years and will co-lead the Just Experience initiative, aimed at ensuring all clients receive a consistent and distinctive experience.

Meanwhile, Glen Halliwell has been hired from TVF Communications, taking up a new client director role. He boasts a strong track record of close collaboration with external experts and clients, and of successfully implementing global medical education initiatives.

The pair will join with agency managing director Kirsty Mearns to lead an 11-strong team at Just Health.

Ms Mearns said: "The combination of Glen's strong scientific credentials and Jo's creative flair will enable us to deliver med comms programmes that are innovative, compelling and of genuine value to the healthcare community."

Next week, the company will attend the annual Communique Awards in London, where it will be competing in four separate categories.
