As a Midweight Art Director at Ogilvy Health, you’ll be the creative force turning client briefs into original, impactful visual ideas that resonate with healthcare professionals, patients, and consumers. Working closely with copywriters and the wider creative team, you'll develop concepts that make an instant, positive impact by translating complex scientific data into compelling, human-centric visual stories.
We’re looking for a highly collaborative creative who thinks beyond traditional layouts to craft ideas that live across every channel—from digital and social to high-science medical education.

- Translate complex scientific concepts, data, and patient insights into clear, engaging, and visually stunning creative work.

- Proven experience as a creative within a Healthcare Marketing/Advertising agency.
- A strong portfolio that showcases conceptual thinking, beautiful execution, and multi-disciplinary work across health, wellness, or pharma.
- The ability to think beyond the brief and generate innovative, strategic visual concepts that work seamlessly across digital, social, and print.
- A positive, collaborative, and contagious spirit—you’re a natural team player who thrives when working with others.
- Excellent design and art direction skills, with a keen eye for detail, typography, layout, and visual storytelling.
- A solid command of Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) with skills in Premier/After Effects being a plus.
- A good understanding of the production process (digital, print, and video) and how to work within budget and regulatory guidelines (e.g., ABPI code).
A talent for creating visual content that simplifies complex health messaging without losing its scientific integrity, inspiring clients and improving the patient/HCP experience.
