Working here means that you will enjoy the support of our work life balance initiatives and the potential for flexible working opportunities.

Work Life Balance

If we are to expect your energy and commitment at work, we believe we must provide the right environment.

And how do we achieve this? It's more than simply respecting the home life of our people and discouraging long hours - more than promoting time and pressure management skills and activities. We're fostering a culture that prioritises workloads and where people even say 'no' once in a while.

At AstraZeneca UK, our 'Balanced Living Charter' is a commitment to improving the balance between work and home life with a series of programmes, which are designed to ensure the physical and psychological well being of our employees.

Flexible Working

Times have changed for the better. At AstraZeneca UK we are learning to measure personal achievement by results, not time spent at the office. Because looking at our outputs rather than watching the clock will make us all more effective.

At the same time many of us have a desire to work more flexibly too. From reduced hours, to home working, AstraZeneca recognises the importance of balance in our work and personal lives.

Think over some ideas. And you can talk with your manager about the flexible working options that might be available to you. But if your request cannot be accommodated, be assured there will be a strong business reason why. Because being a global business requires commitment to delivery and customer service. And we hope you agree that's just something we can't be flexible on.
