Early Talent Graduate Training Programme 5

Video transcript

So I graduated from the University of Leeds with a degree in biomedical science. Prior to graduating, I spent a year at a medical education agency working on lots of different projects for pharmaceutical companies like AbbVie. After that, I found myself wanting to learn a bit more about what this means to the wider business and what this means for patients. So I then spent two years in a remote sales role for a different pharmaceutical company.

So I came across the role with AbbVie, which advertised a rotational programme, offering rotations within marketing, customer excellence and market access, which really appealed to me because I was keen to broaden my skill set and just wider understanding of the industry as a whole. So I'm currently working within the marketing team. And this is a launch brand which means that it's a very fast paced environment. And part of my role has been involved in brand planning for the rest of the year, whilst also working on omni channel tactical plan too.

So it's quite nice to see how the business really positively reacted to the pandemic. And now we have the option to work remotely two days per week with three days in the office. And for me, this has given me the chance to have more of my meetings in person which is quite nice. And then spending more time at home focused on kind of quiet project work, which has worked out well for me.

So in five years time, I see myself in a position where I'm comfortable with the AbbVie ways of working across various different business areas. And who knows, maybe I'll even be in a position where I can mentor and support people who join AbbVie as part of the early talent programme in the future.
