Life Healthcare Communications adds new member of digital team

Life Healthcare Communications has bolstered its digital capabilities with the appointment of Adam Richardson as a new senior software developer.

The agency has hired Mr Richardson to its digital department in order to improve its in-house development capabilities for Apple's iOS mobile platform, thus allowing it to deliver a wider range of digital marketing solutions.

Mr Richardson brings more than ten years of experience in website, app and systems development to his new role, having spent the past seven years with the chemicals, paints and coatings manufacturer AkzoNobel.

During his time with the company, he was responsible for creating a wide range of web-based systems and iOS applications, including an award winning iPhone app.

His appointment comes after Life Healthcare Communications was recently named communications agency team of the year at the PharmaTimes Marketer of the Year Awards.

The firm also claimed a PM Society award for a direct mail marketing campaign carried out to promote the acne treatment Epiduo last month.
