Versantra is a growth consultancy helping healthcare agencies align leaders through redefined strategic purpose and value in a changing market — embedding structure and rhythm into your business so every single person is driving to make it a success.
Healthcare agencies are operating in one of the most challenging environments the sector has seen.
Budgets are tightening. Pharma is consolidating. Expectations are rising.
Teams are under pressure, delivery models are evolving, and differentiation is harder than ever.
Growth is still possible. It just requires a different way of working.
That’s where Versantra supports you.
It’s not a lack of ambition, or talent — it’s a lack of alignment, rhythm, and practical focus.
It’s strategy brought to life — through people, clarity, and structure.
Translate strategy into meaningful, consistent action
Create accountability that feels supportive, not punitive
Build operating rhythms that reduce firefighting
Strengthen how they show up to pharma
Align leaders behind a clear Core Focus™
Sharpen their strategic positioning
We help agencies:
Versantra doesn’t hand you a plan and disappears. We work alongside your leadership and teams to make strategy usable, understood, and embedded.
What this creates:
When leaders aren’t aligned, even the best strategy loses momentum. We define your Core Focus™, refine your positioning, and create a shared growth narrative the whole agency can believe in.
What this supports:
Agencies need more than ideas — they need consistent, sustainable cadence. Using frameworks like the Growth Arc™ and Accountability Triangle™, we help you build the systems that support smarter decisions, healthier workloads, and confident delivery.
What this enables:
Too many strategies stop at intent. Execution fails when people can’t see their role in creating value.
We make sure every person understands how they contribute to the bigger picture, each and every day, so execution becomes shared and steady. The Value Creation Bridge™ and Translation Maps™ make strategy visible, human and measurable.
From writing shop to trusted strategic partner, with a strengthened operating cadence and a £1.1M pipeline uplift.
Medical Communications Agency
From “events partner” to scientific communications specialist — with sharper positioning and business-wide accountability systems.
Clinical Trial Investigator Events Agency
From post-crisis fragility to a clear strategy, empowered leadership, and renewed commercial momentum.
PR Health Equity Agency
Versantra helps agencies build this foundation — from the inside out.
Execution is no longer a nice-to-have.
It’s the foundation of credibility, differentiation, and sustainable performance.
Pharma is looking for partners who bring clarity, expertise, and strategic thinking — not just delivery.
Amanda Smith has spent over 30 years at the intersection of clinical care, pharma, and global healthcare communications. She’s led teams through transformation, scaling, uncertainty, and recovery — and understands why strategies succeed or stall.
Her approach blends clarity, operational structure, and a deeply human understanding of how people work. She believes that when leaders and teams are aligned, supported, and engaged, meaningful change becomes possible.
