What’s it really like to work in a supporting function?
Our support functions are invaluable strategic partners to the business, delivering a range of key services. While working in one of our teams, you’ll add real value to our business, enabling us to help more people benefit from our products and medicines. You’ll also gain a real breadth of knowledge, as you experience the challenges facing a large, global organisation.
Do I have the right qualities?
Our support functions look for people who have outstanding knowledge and skills and are keen to apply their experience in a challenging business environment. You also need to do this in line with our values and behaviours, especially in building effective relationships with your business partners. We believe that how we deliver is every bit as important as what we deliver.
