About the company
Simple Pharma Group is an investment group dedicated to allowing stranded innovation to exist and thrive within the life sciences industry. The group’s purpose is to improve patient access to medicines globally by providing the best home for proven pharma products. The group is formed of two sister companies with distinct strategies: Androlabs and Simple Pharma.
Androlabs is a group portfolio company that aims to build a globally significant pharmaceutical company solely dedicated to men’s health. Established in February 2021 with the acquisition of Testavan and Vitaros, Androlabs has developed a deep expertise in men’s health. It markets and promotes the two products across 20 countries and has two development products scheduled to launch in 2024 and 2026.
With Simple Pharma, we are building the first end-to-end operations partner to pharma companies who wish to focus on their core business. Given the highly regulated environment in which pharma companies operate, operations are specialised and complex, meaning that product owners often default to risk-averse, manual ways of working. By channelling our core purpose into these activities, we relieve pharma companies of these obligations and deliver a better service than they could manage for themselves.
We have grown our team to around 30 people across 5 countries. We are EBITDA profitable, growing, and are participating in a market that is ripe for new thinking. Our diverse team has a range of top academic and professional experience from institutions such as Oxford, INSEAD, Imperial, UCL, McKinsey, Latham amp; Watkins, PwC, EY, Johnson amp; Johnson, Accenture, Entrepreneur First, and others.
The programme
We are looking for a Summer Intern to work on a broad range of projects which will inform the company’s strategic priorities. This role is most suited to students who want to get some hands-on business experience, and who are interested in working on a variety of tasks. For example, you may start your internship with helping to further optimise our marketing process and end it with commercial negotiations with customer and suppliers.
You’ll join us for a period of 12 weeks during the summer months. You’ll be paired with a mentor during your internship and will have a manager for the project(s) you’re involved in. You’ll have the opportunity to join in with team events and any social activities that we have during this time.
This is a paid internship at a competitive pro-rata graduate salary. If you are successful, and subject to job openings, you will have the opportunity to receive an offer for a full-time role at the end of the internship.
By joining an internship programme at an early-stage company, you will benefit from accelerated learning and being given the agency to contribute to commercial decisions, while at the same time having flexibility to work on projects that you find most interesting.
