Addlestone
FULL TIME
November 1, 2024
About Astellas:
At Astellas we are a progressive health partner, delivering value and outcomes where needed.
We pursue innovative science, focussing initially on the areas of greatest potential and then developing solutions where patient need is high, often in rare or under-served disease areas and in life-threatening or life-limiting diseases and conditions.
We work directly with patients, doctors and health care professionals on the front line to ensure patient and clinical needs are guiding our development activities at every stage.
Our global vision for Patient Centricity is to support the development of innovative health solutions through a deep understanding of the patient experience. At Astellas, Patient Centricity isn’t a buzzword - it’s a guiding principle for action. We believe all staff have a role to play in creating a patient-centric culture and integrating an awareness of the patient into our everyday working practices, regardless of our role, team or division.
We work closely with regulatory authorities and payers to find new ways to ensure access to new therapies. We deliver the latest insights and real-world evidence to inform the best decisions for patients and their care-givers, to ensure the medicines we develop continue to provide meaningful outcomes.
Beyond medicines, we support our stakeholder communities to drive initiatives that improve awareness, education, access and ultimately standards of care.
The Opportunity:
As the Employee Experience and Organizational Effectiveness Lead, you will be a core member of the People Enablement team, responsible for designing and leading efforts to foster Astellas’ culture through enhanced employee engagement and organizational effectiveness. In this role, you will shape and implement initiatives that drive engagement through key “moments that matter” across the entire employee lifecycle. You will also oversee and continuously refine Astellas’ annual employee engagement survey, ensuring successful execution of all related action items to strengthen the employee experience.
Hybrid Working:
At Astellas we recognise the importance of balancing your work and home life, so we offer a hybrid working solution allowing time to connect with colleagues in person at the office alongside the flexibility to work from home; optimising the most productive work environment for you to succeed and deliver.
Key Responsibilities:
Job Types: Full-time, Permanent
Work Location: Hybrid remote in Addlestone, KT15 2NX
