Our sites
Cotia, São Paulo.
Our state-of-the-art commercial, manufacturing and distribution facilities are in Cotia, São Paulo state, and cover an area of approximately 60,000 m2.
Here, the brightest minds in Production, Distribution, Marketing, HR, IT, Clinical Research, Respiratory, Oncology, CVRM, Brand, Medical, Corporate Affairs, Finance, and Legal are sharing ideas and putting patients first to increase access to medicines for Brazilians everywhere.
And, with a running track on site, rest gardens and even massage services, our people are motivated to do their best work by having the right facilities that promote a healthy body and mind. That’s how we keep our best minds at their best.
What we offer
We thrive in a collaborative and friendly environment. We join forces for a common goal: saving and prolonging patients' lives. We believe collaboration and diversity are key to this, and when you work for AstraZeneca, you are never alone. It’s this ethos that’s helped us top the list of Best Companies to Work For in Brazil for an incredible 14 consecutive years. We are not afraid to do things differently. We are developing new ways of working, creating modern methods, and bringing different people together to produce an inspiring science.
Inclusion and diversity
We strive for an open and inclusive culture that inspires and celebrates diversity in everything we do. We believe that “Everybody is different. Nobody should be indifferent.” And that’s what our Revealing Differences initiative is all about. That’s why we have PEOPLE as one of our four strategic pillars. It’s our responsibility as an organisation to create a relatable environment that represents the community we serve, encouraging diversity across everything we do.
Your career journey
When it comes to your development, we believe each individual should drive their own career. We’ll support you all the way – with a range of cross-functional projects, job rotations, leadership programs and international career opportunities to get the best out of you. Our focus on professional development through career opportunities, quality of life and recognition of hard work – with competitive full compensation – reinforces our commitment to you. And, we have practices implemented in several areas that corroborate this objective.
Life in balance
To reach your potential both personally and professionally, it’s important to strike a balance between life and work. Join us and you’ll enjoy a Christmas recess that does not affect your annual vacation, short Fridays, and flexible opportunities to work around you.
Wellbeing
To support the health and wellbeing of our people, we offer annual medical checks, a pregnancy programme and childcare assistance. We also offer reimbursements for gym membership, and the services of a credit cooperative.
Giving back
Every year we support a series of social projects aimed at promoting health, education and quality of life, from sports activities to cultural programs in hospitals. We also support community services, supporting the elderly and those with special needs.
