  • Draft articles and op-eds for the CEO and Senior Management Team for publication on the website as well as speeches and presentations for the CEO at ASA and external events

INDMED

We are the UK’s independent frontline regulator of ads by legitimate businesses and other organisations in all media, including online. We are authoritative and influential on ad regulation; the centre of expertise. The rules we administer and enforce are contained in the UK Advertising Codes, written by the industry Committees of Advertising Practice (CAP). To help maintain our independence from the industry that funds us, we are primarily funded at arm’s length by the Advertising Standards Boards of Finance (Asbof). Together, the ASA, CAP and Asbof make up the ASA system.

Our purpose is to make sure ads are responsible. Our ambition is to make sure every UK ad is a responsible ad. Our values are to be proactive, collaborative, accountable, transparent and decisive. We want external stakeholders to find us to be: independent in administering the Codes; evidence-based, proportionate, targeted and consistent; and reflective of society, not a social engineer.

We are passionate about what we do because responsible ads are good for people, good for society and good for business. They entertain and inform us, helping us to choose products and services. They fund the media, sport and culture we all enjoy. They can be a force for social good, encouraging us to contribute to good causes, make more responsible choices and stay safe. And they help deliver competition and power the economy. By making sure ads are responsible, we protect people from being misled, harmed or offended, helping them feel more confident in the ads they see and hear.
