When we put unexpected teams in the same room, we unleash bold thinking with the power to inspire life-changing medicines. In-person working gives us the platform we need to connect, work at pace and challenge perceptions. That's why we work, on average, a minimum of three days per week from the office. But that doesn't mean we're not flexible. We balance the expectation of being in the office while respecting individual flexibility. Join us in our unique and ambitious world.

At AstraZeneca's Oncology Business Unit, we believe in drawing on the brightest and most diverse minds to impact at scale. We work cross-functionally, as well as externally, to thrive at pace. We are always expanding our network – whether that’s with global professional networks, research centers, academia or patient communities. We are driven by an entrepreneurial spirit, enabling us to proactively take initiatives, speak up and see first-hand the difference we've made. We embrace continuous change and improvement, encouraged to think differently and develop game-changing ideas.
