Pharma Jobs | Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Europe

This is simply a great place to work. We care about the careers and lives of our employees, which is rare in subsidiaries of large global corporations. This makes us special.

We benefit from the stability of being part of a large Japanese corporation but we are a separate autonomous subsidiary so we can offer our employees real scope for global, cross-company projects which stretch and challenge them. We operate most of the functions you would expect to find in a large pharmaceutical company and we are committed to supporting and developing our employees and their careers within our company.

We have grown organically in the UK and now have well over 100 employees located in modern offices in the heart of the City of London, conveniently near Liverpool Street station. Our offices are energy saving and environmentally friendly.

We are committed to equality and value diversity within our workforce. We provide equality of opportunity and will not tolerate discrimination on any grounds. Our employee base reflects the multicultural employment market in London.

The way we interact with each other is guided by our corporate behaviour charter. Our employees are hardworking, friendly and respectful. In particular we encourage free and open communication and teamwork. Being part of a larger Japanese corporation, trust and fairness are central to our ethos.

We conduct our business in full compliance with the high moral and ethical standards set out in pharmaceutical industry codes of practice and legal requirements.

Testimonials

Excellent office location, close to Brick Lane, Shoreditch and Spitalfield Market if you want to get a ‘taste’ of east London or just enjoy east end culture.

As a Pharmaceutical Physician in training with the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Medicine, MTPE offers an ideal environment for any physician regardless of training stage. There is ample opportunity to be involved in a variety of projects which provides significant scope for accomplishing the required learning outcomes while providing a broad breadth of experience.

Even from the first interview, it was clear that MTPE encourages the continuation of professional development, education and revalidation activities - Pharmaceutical Physician Trainee ST5.

I’ve worked for four different Japanese Pharma companies and working for MTPE is definitely the best as you are asked to ‘make it happen’.

Certainly the job is exciting, but it is the wide role and open-remit of the job that is the invigorating element.

MTPE’s approach to resolving challenges is different to that of all other of the nine Pharmaceutical companies I've worked at.

You will be given a breadth and vision of what is expected of you and encouraged to utilise your expertise to the full.

It's fabulous to be able to combine working in a global pharmaceutical company in the heart of a city, furthermore, in the City of London. There are not many chances to do this!

I feel that MTPE is an excellent place to work, in a great location, with exciting projects and with the truly global experience that only comes with working for a Company of Japanese origin.

Being a mid-sized set-up within Europe, my first experience within Pharma has allowed me to use all my strengths as a Project Manager and Manager, whilst getting involved in the early stages of Drug Development. This is a unique opportunity which I am very lucky to have had thanks to MTPE.

Extra working time taken as 1/2 day flexi off is very valuable and gives me the flexibility we all need.

I have now been at MTPE for almost 5 years after working internationally - The attractions are for me : its small size and the opportunity to be involved in local project teams including a broad variety of functions, backgrounds and nationalities.

I used to drive 1 hour each way to my previous office via the M4 and M25. However, having the MTPE office in the city makes my commute a lot easier and allows for a healthier lifestyle.

Good collaboration with our Japan based HQ colleagues.

The flexi time system has ensured I can meet both my work and personal priorities - it makes my weekly juggling act easier.

The company takes a scientific and evidence driven approach to drug development - this is a major attraction for me.

Flexitime means suddenly 10 or more minutes later does not matter that much, and if your tube or train refuses to cooperate with your travel, you are still on time in the office.

Very nice, friendly and extremely professional people from nearly 30 nationalities - this is what I consider a truly international working environment.

Although MTPE's business size is still small in Europe, it has great potential to grow as a subsidiary of one of the biggest pharmaceutical companies in Japan which is also a major affiliate of one of the world's biggest chemical companies. This motivates me to work here in MTPE.

I’m impressed by the full suite of employee benefits, you hopefully won’t ever have to use them all but at least they are there in case you do.

Good, competitive salary and benefits package.

The responsibility and broad range of roles available for the small sized growing companies has enhanced my capability and ability as a business person.

Working on projects in a smaller company, empowers me to learn and ultimately manage every aspect of the project.

I have not previously worked within a Japanese pharmaceutical company and I really enjoy it.
