Molecule to Market

Use your research and marketing strategy skills to launch a new medicine with Pfizer

This is an educational resource that has been developed and funded by Pfizer Ltd in partnership with Forage.

This is an educational resource. By no means is the intention to promote any particular medicine or company. Please note that in the UK, pharmaceutical companies are prohibited to promote prescription only medicines directly to the public. 

Welcome to the Pfizer UK Molecule to Market Job Simulation. We are so excited to have you here!

You can get a taste of what it’s like to work for Pfizer, one of the world’s premier biopharmaceutical companies. If you’re interested in science but want to know what else is out there apart from being a nurse, researcher or doctor or are interested in business that creates real change to deliver ‘Breakthroughs that change patients’ lives’, come on in! 

We don’t just do research. You can learn how to get new medicines into the hands of patients that need them. You’ll discover all the parts that come after the crucial science-based steps of our awesome research & development scientists. Take a look behind the scenes at the pharmaceutical industry and join some of our team members to go through how a new medicine is reimbursed for use in the NHS in the UK, how to develop a market position for it and how to build a ‘go to market’ strategy. 

You will upskill yourself and upgrade your resume. And you could even step foot through our front door someday soon through our Apprenticeship, Undergraduate and Graduate programmes. Click here to explore our careers page – we can’t wait to meet you!
