Toronto-based agency Klick Health has gone on a year-end hiring spree, adding 22 senior leaders across client services, creative, growth, media, medical and strategy, as well as a new managing director of its Asia Pacific Region—Graeme Read. 

Previously, as president, McCann Health Asia-Pacific, Read led a team of 600 across 12 offices in Japan, China, Korea, Singapore, Philippines, India and Australia.  

Fred Hickman has joined the agency as senior vice president, group account director. Previously in senior client service roles at agencies like 21GRAMS and Grey Group, he has worked across a range of therapeutic areas including autoimmune diseases, emergency hospital products, diabetes, medical devices, neurological conditions, and rare diseases.  

“We’re energized by the solid growth we’ve continued to see this year across the business and are beyond excited about the accomplished marketing leaders who have made their move to Klick,” said CEO Lori Grant.  

The hiring spree follows a year of double-digit revenue growth in 2024 for the agency. The company declined to be more specific, but trade publication Medical Marketing + Media estimated 2023 revenues at $603 million.
