Lives When does a life’s work become lives saved? Imagine an environment where all professionals are valued, involved, supported and respected. Imagine working on interdisciplinary, diverse and inclusive teams. Imagine your unique ideas, perspectives and background playing a vital role improving the lives of millions. At Pﬁzer Global Research & Development (PGRD), the world’s largest research-based biomedical and pharmaceutical company, we don’t imagine these things – we embody them. As Pﬁzer’s visionary discovery and development division, we embrace diversity because we believe our greatest strength is our ability to leverage the different ideas, talents, and cultures of our people. Together, their unique view of the world beneﬁts the health and quality of life of people everywhere. Tifﬁni B. explains, “Pﬁzer is true to diversity, not only from an ethnic perspective, but from scientiﬁc research as well. We are always looking for the best talent. Our main concern is the diversity of scientiﬁc research and its innovation.” Innovation is our strategy, our purpose, and our governance. To this end, we have gathered a community of talented scientiﬁc minds and we encourage cross-discipline cooperation, collaboration with academia, and an environment of curiosity. “I am a Hispanic female. And for me, I don’t think being a minority has ever held me back in achieving my goals – it is deﬁnitely not an obstacle. There is a very diverse workforce. It’s just a way of life here at Pﬁzer,” says Elva P. PGRD is proud to actively seek out and welcome diverse, creative minds to join our team and to work in an inclusive environment where ideas are freely exchanged, turned into action, and generate new lifesaving therapies. With our research pipeline spanning multiple therapeutic areas and research projects, we’re clearly committed to bringing more miracles to the marketplace because we can imagine a world that is a healthier and happier place for all.
