Our Company

Our Company

We are Havas Lynx.

Making an impact that matters to our brands, our people, and our world. 

We are Havas Lynx, a leading healthcare communications agency with a full-service global offering and almost 600 multidisciplinary specialists.

We bring together fresh perspectives, creative thinking and a progressive approach to partner with our clients, healthcare professionals and patients in finding solutions for the modern-day healthcare landscape. Ultimately, everything we do is about making a genuine and lasting impact.

And with 36 years of doing this, we’ve been able to produce some serious impact.

We’ve launched over 25 brands, including working on some of the most successful launches in pharma. And supported brands throughout their lifecycle, and across brand priorities. We’ve broken down stereotypes in prostate cancer awareness, supported opioid users in doing something remarkable and shone a light on the hidden healthcare crises within the LGBTQ+ community.

To have this impact, we understand the profound importance of creating an environment where all our people can flourish. Focusing internally to nurture a uniquely talented, proactive and diverse culture that’s been acknowledged as an accredited ‘Great Place to Work’.

Our passion doesn’t stop at our door. We’ve also committed to net zero and proud to support those causes that quite literally mean the world to us.

So whether it’s for our clients, our people or the world around us, we’re always on the hunt for the next impact we can make.

In 2023, we have been recognised as one of the UK’s Best Workplaces™ by Great Place to Work®, the global authority on workplace culture. Our approach and commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusivity (ED&I) is just one of the reasons why we ranked 38 in the Large category and why employees love working for Lynx. Some reasons behind why we’ve been ranked as an outstanding place to work includes:

  1. 95% of employees believing people are treated fairly regardless of their sexual orientation;
  2. 93% of employees believe people are treated fair regardless of their race;
  3. 92% of employees believe when joining the company, you are made to feel welcome

Employees have shared how the learning and development opportunities and the investment made by the company, through the Academy programme, has aided their professional and personal development. One employee disclosed how the time and space given by their line manager has allowed them to create a healthy work-life balance whilst completing their masters.

The collaborative nature and social culture are yet more reasons why we’ve ranked, with employees sharing how they love the opportunity to meet other people through Havas Archway (our entry-level programme), regular social activities, and charitable fundraising events.

Havas Lynx is a fully serviced, integrated agency. Whether it’s market access or mobile development, public image or integrated campaigns, our weight of experience and global footprint afford us masters in every discipline. And yet our greatest asset is our understanding; of the sector, of our clients and of their audiences. Every challenge we face is unique.
