Advance your expertise with our commercial graduate programme

Embark on a dynamic and immersive rotational programme that offers a deep dive into our biopharma business. Personalised to the market requirements and nuances, you will experience two to three strategic rotations across different commercial teams, each designed to equip you to deepen skills and experiences that will shape your career.

In the sales rotation, you will get hands-on experience in a customer-facing role, where you’ll interact directly with healthcare professionals and clinics. You’ll learn to understand their needs, share crucial information about our products, and drive business growth through exceptional customer service.

You may also work in a brand or customer marketing rotation, where you’ll develop and execute marketing strategies, manage globally aligned campaigns, and analyse market trends. You’ll gather insights into customer and patient preferences, learning what drives sales and influences market success.

An optional third rotation will help you further develop your understanding of commercial. You will deepen your expertise by working in areas within commercial excellence or market access like omnichannel, digital & tech, insights & analytics, consumer marketing insights, life cycle innovation, new assets launch excellence, pricing & market access, or competitive brand strategy.

I think GSK is one of the few companies that take people development seriously. I've never seen such a structured programme, nor this flexibility to explore diverse roles.
