Our ambition is to positively impact the health of 2.5 billion people by the end of 2030. We have global businesses that research, develop, and manufacture innovative pharmaceutical medicines and vaccines. We are committed to widening access to our products, so more people can benefit, no matter where they live in the world or what they can afford to pay.
Find a career with purpose in genetics or genomics
Our people are central to our success. To deliver against our strategy and tackle global health challenges effectively, we need a talented, motivated, and resilient workforce. To achieve this, we aim to create a working environment where employees feel valued, empowered, and inspired.
Our approach to R&D focuses on science related to the immune system, and will leverage human genetics, functional genomics, and advanced analytics to improve the probability of successfully developing new medicines. Used on a genome-wide scale, these technologies have the power to uncover insights previously hidden. We are poised to transform drug discovery by taking a deeper look into the genetic clues behind disease, aided by large-scale genetic resources, the latest technology, and advanced data science skills.
Our exclusive partnership with 23andMe gives us access to one of the largest sets of genotypic and phenotypic information. In addition, our collaborations with Genomics England, UK Biobank, FinnGen, Open Targets, the Altius Institute, the BROAD Institute and the Laboratory for Genomic Research, along with our world-leading internal capabilities, position GSK to be world-leaders in using human genetics and functional genomics as an integral part to drug discovery and development.
