Here our work has a direct impact on patients – transforming our ability to develop life-changing medicines. We empower the business to perform at its peak and lead a new way of working, combining cutting-edge science with leading digital technology platforms and data. All with a passion to impact lives through data, analytics, AI, machine learning and more.
We truly value our Graduate talent, their experience, knowledge, ideas and who they are. So here, you’ll be empowered to jump in, take the initiative and be part of meaningful project teams to make an impact and deliver real value for our patients and our business.
About the role
As the next wave of technology leaders, you’ll use your skills and influence to deliver technology solutions and help improve the way we operate, serve customers and enable our teams to do their best work. Because here, we truly value your knowledge, experience and ideas. So, you’ll always be encouraged to take the initiative to help drive our technology capabilities and make meaningful impact for our business, and our patients.
We’ve been busy building and developing our technology which is now enabling our transformation to become a digital and data-led enterprise. There’s never been a better time to join us as we bring our digital strategy to life. There’s a huge opportunity to develop, explore and thrive during our next chapter.
Starting in September 2023, the Technology Leadership Graduate Programme begins with three individual eight-month placements. Each placement will provide you with extraordinary insights into our business, and the chance to influence our future direction. If successful during the first 2 years, you will then consolidate your learning and experience in your third year in the programme.
Working alongside diverse, talented peers in an inclusive, supportive environment, the Programme will have you moving through different rotations to hone your skills, develop as a leader, and get where you want to go. Supported by expert managers and mentors to develop life-changing skills and set you up for success.
The pace is fast, and the levels of challenge and responsibility are high, but we always have fun doing it. So, if you’re ready to pursue your passion for technology-led science and challenge the status quo to kickstart your career and make an impact, then we can’t wait to have you on our team.
