Are you passionate about creating advertising that not only informs but also transforms lives within the healthcare sector? At Havas Lynx, a global advertising agency at the forefront of healthcare communications, we combine unmatched creativity, extensive expertise, and a deep understanding of the pharmaceutical and healthcare field. Our communications resonate deeply with audiences and adhere to the highest standards of healthcare advertising. Committed to driving meaningful change, we work in close partnership with healthcare professionals, patients, carers, and leading pharmaceutical brands to navigate the complex challenges of today's healthcare landscape.

Our approach blends strategic insights and deep scientific acumen with cutting-edge creativity and digital innovation, crafting campaigns and solutions that significantly improve people's lives. We’re a team of over 400+ people in Manchester and London, with a history spanning over 35 years and an ever-evolving future.

Summary of our role: We’re looking for a Multi-Disciplinary Mid - Weight Designer to join our creative team. You will have the opportunity to contribute to high-quality design work across a range of projects, helping ensure all outputs meet client expectations. You’ll collaborate with multidisciplinary teams and support the development of the visual direction of campaigns.

Mid-Weight Designer Role Expectations:
  • Contribute to High-Impact Information: understands creative briefs properly; creates 2-3 different visual approaches that fit the brand and audience; makes the case for design choices that strengthen the campaign idea; follows brand guidelines whilst beginning to recognise when breaking them might actually work better.
  • AI Exploration: speeds up exploration and creates initial directions; is learning to spot common AI problems; improves AI outputs through testing and adjusting.
  • Client Collaboration: asks clarifying questions when briefs aren't clear; listens carefully to client feedback and turns it into design changes; presents work as part of the creative team.
  • Creative Exploration: absorbs design inspiration from multiple sources; references current design trends appropriately; challenges Writers and Art Directors when an idea needs stronger visual expression.
  • Cross-Team Collaboration: understands how design can make or break a copywriting idea; suggests design-led solutions; works back-and-forth with Writers to ensure visuals and words work well together.
What "Mid-Weight" Feels Like in Practice:
  • You're in the room when ideas are born - not just receiving finished concepts to design, but helping shape them from the start.
  • Art Directors see you as a creative partner - they bring you into thinking early because you make the work better.
  • You own projects with senior support - not waiting for constant direction, but knowing when to check in.
  • You're comfortable being wrong - you try things, some don't work, you learn fast and move on.
  • You're curious about AI but realistic - excited to experiment and use it to visualise ideas faster for your team.

What you can expect from us: A supportive and challenging environment in which you will have the opportunity to learn, grow, and make an impact that matters. We put a huge investment into #LYNXLife and our #LXAcademy internal programmes. You can also expect a whole host of benefits, including: Remote working, starting holiday allowance of 28 days annual leave + Bank Holidays, with increasing allowance connected to length of service, option to buy, carry or sell holidays, early Friday finish throughout the year, seasonal working hours, enhanced family leave, pay and return to work benefit scheme.
