How hard is it to go from agency strategy to client side? (Ive mostly seen it happen with account roles.)

Also, what level should I be targeting as a current VP in an agency setting?

(Specifically really interested in Pfizer b/c of their digital & CX teams, but open to others and would love to learn from anyone else who went agency —> in house!)

I went from VP to manager level (equivalent of senior marketing manager). Its worth it in every way. Good luck!

This is great to hear! Thanks!

Novartis also has a great CX department, so I'd consider any of their open positions, as well! Actually, my current CX contact at NVS for my brand started agency side at Havas before going to NVS.

I'm SVP/strategy for a PR agency. I moved into PR, Healthcare, and Strategic Planning only 3 years ago. An agency recruiter is trying to convince me to move into a GSVP account role, assuring me "at that level it's all strategy." (I dont think she understands the words she's using. Or that I'm qualified). But long-term, knowing account roles are so much more plentiful than brand planning in PR, I'm wondering if I should start thinking about account. Anyone here moved from strategy to account?

I’ve been having a super hard time concepting lately, especially knowing that the “concept” will mostly serve as a sticker to slap on the cover of a CVA and the top of a website. I feel like every pharma concept I’ve ever seen or created becomes so cheesy once it appears in tactics. Does anyone have any examples of HCP creative (non-DSA) that is both impactful and translates well into pharma tactics?
