Pfizer

About Pfizer

Pfizer has a rich heritage of working within the UK since our first facility was opened back in 1952.

Over the past 65 years, we have continued to invest in the UK and are committed to working with the NHS and other healthcare organisations across the industry developing solutions to improve the delivery of care and patient outcomes.

In 2016, we spent over £250 million supporting research and development carried out in the UK and contributed to 162 collaborations with universities, pharmaceutical companies, industries and others. Through collaborations with scientists, academics and clinicians, sharing knowledge, skills and expertise we aim to improve the health and lives of people in the UK and around the world. During 2016, we had 55 clinical trials on-going in the UK, across 292 UK sites, involving over 4,000 patients since the trials started.

Every year in the UK, we recruit undergraduate degree students onto our 12 month Undergraduate Placement Scheme.

The scheme provides paid placements across all the business units within Pfizer UK, including our commercial business and Research & Development.

Throughout your placement, you will contribute to live departmental projects and be given real responsibility.

It's a fantastic opportunity to gain an insight into how one of the world's leading innovative biopharmaceutical companies operates, while advancing your own academic knowledge and technical skills.

The placements are available at three of our sites; Sandwich in Kent, Hurley in Berkshire and Tadworth in Surrey. All our sites have state of the art modern facilities, which can include (depending on location), staff restaurant, coffee shop, gym, free on-site parking and a Pfizer bus service from surrounding towns. What's more, you'll enjoy an industry competitive salary, 25.5 days holiday and a wide range of other benefits.
