Lee Davies, most recently Merck’s global media relations (cardiovascular, oncology, diabetes and women’s health) and oncology products PR director, has joined Makovsky + Co. as group VP. He reports to Gil Bashe, executive VP and health chief.
Bashe calls Davies a “rare industry talent with experience encompassing pharma marketing communications, media relations and issues management.”
Davie began his career in the marketing departments of Pfizer and Schering-Plough before becoming founding member of Burson-Marsteller’s healthcare operation.
In his more than 30 years of PR experience, Davies held senior management slots at Omnicom’s PRISM International, Euro RSCG and Ogilvy PR Worldwide.
He also co-ran Davies and Murray for a dozen years before returning to Schering-Plough before its acquisition by Merck.
