GLOBALHealthPR appoints Tim Goddard as president
GLOBALHealthPR has promoted Tim Goddard to president, after two years as the independent healthcare communications agency network’s executive vice president.
He initially joined GLOBALHealthPR and its chair agency, Spectrum Science Communications, in 2015 following nearly a decade at Chamberlain Healthcare Public Relations, holding roles in both New York and London.
In his new role Goddard (pictured above left) will take on expanded responsibilities including overseeing all aspects of strategy, business development, partner relations and growth of the GLOBALHealthPR network.
He said: “I am truly honoured to work with our outstanding partner agencies in this expanded capacity as we continue to redefine the traditional agency network model to deliver the best in healthcare communications everywhere in the world.
“Beyond our depth of healthcare expertise, what differentiates this network is the strong collaborative relationships between agencies—relationships that fuel exceptional global communications strategies for clients across the health and life science industries.”
The move sees also sees former GLOBALHealthPR president Jonathan Wilson (pictured above right) transition into the chair role, where he will work closely with Goddard to set the network’s strategic vision for the network in the coming years. Wilson will maintain his day-to-day position as CEO of US healthcare agency Spectrum.
He said: “Tim’s tireless work ethic, focused leadership and genuine dedication to our mission make him the perfect leader to continue to meet the evolving needs of the companies and organisations we serve globally.
“He has been instrumental in delivering our vision for the network of the future, where independent agencies—all successful experts in their own right—seamlessly deliver impactful global strategies anchored in strong local and regional insights.”
During his tenure, Goddard has been instrumental in expanding the reach of the network in key markets across Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America and Africa, via the addition of seven new partner agencies.
The most recent addition saw Chile’s Strategika join the fold, adding to the partnership’s Latin American agencies of Paradigma in Argentina, Tino Comunicação in Brasil and Mexico’s PRP.
