Careers

We have a unique culture, characterized by excellent teamwork and strong engagement across the organization.

Making bonds is at the core of everything we do: discovering and developing the best new peptide drugs for patients, engaging with our partners or connecting with each other.

We bond as a result of our entrepreneurial culture where our people are encouraged to pursue their ideas and turn them into reality. We bond by being curious about each other’s knowledge and expertise.

We bond through playfulness as a team, allowing ourselves to challenge common thinking, sowing the seeds of future innovation. We bond by making Zealand Pharma a place where everyone is heard and contributes to the success, we all want to experience.

Throughout our 25-year history, we have built a unique company culture built on collaboration, courage, empowerment, and trust, where employees are given autonomy to shape their work with a strong focus on a deeper purpose. 

Our culture is held together by the Zealand DNA:

• we are BOLD
• we EMPOWER people
• we work as ONE TEAM
• we can be TRUSTED

We foster an inclusive workplace for all individuals, regardless of their background. We value diversity not only because we believe that this is the socially responsible thing to do, but because we believe that diverse teams arrive at better solutions, eventually benefitting patients, our company, and society at large.

We are committed to providing equal employment opportunities for all employees, and we evaluate recruitment of new employees, training and development opportunities for existing employees, promotions, and other personnel decisions regardless of race, colour, gender identity or expression, religion, age, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, military or veteran status, part-time or full-time employee status, or any other basis.

We acknowledge that diversity goes beyond gender and that we as a company embrace diverse backgrounds in terms of experience and competencies. In Zealand, we do not only have a diverse team in terms of gender, but also value different educational, cultural, and industry backgrounds.
