Our New GSK Story

At GSK, we have already delivered unprecedented change over the past four years, improving R&D, becoming a leader in Consumer Healthcare, strengthening our leadership, and transforming our commercial execution. Now, weโ€™re making the most significant changes weโ€™ve made to our business in over 20 years. Weโ€™re on track to separate and create two new companies in 2022: New GSK with a leading portfolio of vaccines and specialty medicines as well as R&D based on the immune system and genetics science; and a new world-leading consumer healthcare company of loved and trusted brands.

With new ambition comes a new purpose. For New GSK, this is to unite science, talent, and technology to get ahead of disease together โ€“ all with the clear ambition of delivering human health impact; stronger and more sustainable shareholder returns; and as a new GSK where outstanding people thrive.

Getting ahead means preventing disease as well as treating it. How we do all this is through our people and our culture. A culture that is ambitious for patients โ€“ so we deliver what matters better and faster; accountable for impact โ€“ with clear ownership of goals and support to succeed; and where we do the right thing. So, if youโ€™re ready to improve the lives of billions, join us at this exciting moment in our journey. Join our challenge to get Ahead Together.

We are excited to announce GSKโ€™s Internship/IBL Programme will be continuing in 2023. To apply you will need to be in your penultimate or final year of an undergraduate degree prior to commencement scheduled for January 2023. There will be exciting opportunities based in Abbotsford (VIC), with applications opening in July 2022 for multiple areas of our business.

Pros and cons of working at GSK

Pros

  • Supportive team, flexible working hours, wealth of knowledge, ongoing training, satisfaction of working with candidate and hiring managers, building relationships and networking.

  • The motivation that everyone carries and surrounds themselves with - to improve lives of those with HIV.

  • Flexibility in working from home or in the office and the accommodating nature of my manager and other staff to allow me to perform at my best.

  • The people and culture.

  • The people and the closely-knit team.

  • Given great opportunities even as an IBL Flexible working and managers are open to work arrangements when needed. Recognised for great work.

Cons

    • Wouldn't say a minus however wish there was more people to work with and collaborate to improve learning.

    • Some outdated and overly time-consuming processes (but the company has provided reassuring dialogue that these are being worked on)

    • Can be fast-paced (with long working hours) depending on business priorities.
