Who we are

Langland, a Publicis Health company, is the only health communications agency that thinks further across Clinical Trial Experience, Medical Strategy & Education, Public Relations & Policy, and Advertising, to create unique value with visionary clients.

What we believe

Health brings us together. In the diseases we suffer, the medicines we create, and the causes we champion, health shows us our collective humanity. When we break the barriers that divide us, when we think further, we can create healthier futures, together.

A passion for craft

Having expert thinking is only part of our story. To ensure excellence in everything we make, we have centred our disciplines around three essential crafts: science, strategy and creativity.

  • Provide strategic feedback to the creative team, ensuring the voice of the customer is at the heart of the work
  • Manage the creative validation and concept testing process
  • Build communications ideas and journeys based on behavioural insights
  • Construct a customer journey tactical plan across multi-media
  • Manage research and insight design, translate data into compelling insight with robust experience in both qual and quant methodologies
  • Run audience interviews/surveys to extract insight
  • Monitor client and competitor activity, keeping on top of market trends, M&A, new product launches, market and brand growth statistics and market financial reports
  • Leadership of workshops, playing a key role in break out groups

  • Expert working knowledge of brand positioning methodologies
  • Detailed understanding of how brands grow as well as the different strategies and tactics used to drive growth
  • A deep love of the creative product and value the craft
  • Confident presentation skills and ability to lead client meetings and workshops
  • Solid experience in constructing and running excellent workshops from large to small client teams, particularly brand and communications planning sessions
