When we put unexpected teams in the same room, we unleash bold thinking with the power to inspire life-changing medicines. In-person working gives us the platform we need to connect, work at pace and challenge perceptions. That's why we work, on average, a minimum of three days per week from the office. But that doesn't mean we're not flexible. We balance the expectation of being in the office while respecting individual flexibility. Join us in our unique and ambitious world.

I&D

We are proud to have a unique workplace culture that inspires innovation and collaboration! Here, employees are empowered to express diverse perspectives - and are made to feel valued, energized and rewarded for their ideas and creativity.

Your decisions will ripple from clinics to national systems, backed by real-world data capabilities, cutting-edge analytics and a culture that shares knowledge across roles and levels to turn a strong pipeline into meaningful outcomes for patients.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
