Careers
People are the foundation of our success, powering industry collaborations, innovations and support that change patients’ lives.
We offer a range of opportunities for people at various stages of their careers. We select individuals for their skills, potential, and commitment to delivering impact for patients.
Why join?
We believe in our people being in the driving seat of their own development and translating their career aspirations into real growth opportunities.
To enable our people to achieve this, we have a state-of-the-art training platform packed with training resources that follow a blended methodology. To tap into an individual’s learning style and preferences, our resources include online videos, podcasts, infographics, webinars and face-to-face sessions, to name a few. This training platform is also integrated into our performance platform to help our people have meaningful development conversations with their managers and to explore further opportunities for development.
As a business, we also support our people with on-the-job training and personal development plans aligned with different competency frameworks, we also conduct companywide training needs analysis, support interdepartmental transfers and secondments to other organisations, support internal apprenticeships and fund professional membership subscription fees and external role related courses, whilst also offering coaching and mentoring opportunities.
Our methodology is simple and is based on a 70/30 principle: 70% of an individual’s development is self-led and supported by the tools that we provide whilst 30% is driven by the organisation, taking into consideration our mission and trajectory.
Our culture
People is what matters to us the most, and we pride ourselves on having a people centred strategy and focus, both externally by improving patients’ lives, and internally by ensuring that our culture fosters the type of environment where everyone can develop their talents.
We are a projects and performance driven organisation, with a mission to support the cell and gene therapy industry, but we are also committed to our people and the ecosystem that we live and work within. Because of this, we have created different groups you can join, such as our equality, diversity and inclusion committee, our mental health first aid network, our social or green committee, or even one of our internal employee-led sports networks.
Equality, diversity and inclusion
Science has taught us that every gene is different, making us all unique and diverse. At CGT Catapult we truly understand and value diversity and we want to make sure that our people feel welcome and comfortable. Having a sense of belonging where you can be your true self matters to us as a business and this is why we have recently launched our equality, diversity and inclusion initiative.
We are at the beginning of our journey but we are committed to fostering an inclusive environment, where discrimination and harassment are not tolerated. Our intent is to successfully deliver on this promise, so as part of this initiative we have signed up with Inclusive Employers.
