Does Houston have an advertising scene? More specifically pharma? If not, besides New York, where can a pharma writer get a job?

Chicago is brimming with pharma cash/agencies. Houston? Never heard of it. 😂

Just took a job in Houston. Smaller agency, there definitely is not much to choose from. Reach out to Sue Cox on LinkedIn if you’re seriously looking.

As a general rule, Pharma agencies tend to cluster near pharma companies (I realize the irony of posting this seeing as I work for Klick, based in Toronto.) So NYC/New Jersey/Philly/SF/Boston/Chicago all have good pharma agency ecosystems. There are occasional one-off shops elsewhere (GSS, Klick, etc) but they’re the exception.

New Jersey is where it’s at

You want pharma specific in Houston? Likely need to go in house. Good luck.

Philly

Yes, Philadelphia 100%. And all the surrounding areas (including Princeton, NJ)

I have a friend who left NY for Houston for a Group Director role. Was laid off a few month (weeks before giving birth) and eventually had to move to LA to find something. Most of your work in Houston would be local or regional.

Pharma is east coast. OUtside of NY All the pharma companies are in Jersey. PHilly small but Ok market. A little in Chicago but it is mostly abbot. Why not go BIOtech and open up the planet. Your pharma experience would still be relevant. You need to know the regs

Takeda is leaving Chicago for Boston (well, Cambridge) to be with all the other pharmas!

Boston! We have multiple writing positions open currently. Focus is pharma, device, diagnostic brands that change the standard of care.

Intouch Solutions has a major office in the Kansas City area.
