Why Specialised Therapeutics?

ST has carefully cultivated a work environment where people are constantly challenged to do their best and think differently. We are determinedly inquisitive, perceptive and courageous, and nurture these qualities by employing people who share our passion for making a difference in patients’ lives. We pride ourselves on our friendly, collaborative, open, dynamic and inclusive team, with a permanent focus on the why.

We are committed to providing a supportive and caring work environment that is supported by a health insurance allowance. We offer flexible work and leave options, generous health insurance, as well as health and lifestyle benefits

ST has five core values – PASSION, INTEGRITY, TEAMWORK, COURAGE and HUMANITY – that serve as a framework for our conduct and set the foundation for how we act and respond in our workplace.

We call it our PITCH plan, and it serves as a guide for all aspects of our company’s operations.

Our PITCH principles define and represent who we are as ST employees and how we want to go about achieving success as a company. It is our commitment to these values that shape our decisions and guide our behaviour.

We firmly believe that if our primary focus is purely on delivering accurate and relevant information pertaining to our hand-picked in-licensed therapies, then commercial success will take care of itself. This philosophy empowers our team to focus on the best possible outcomes for patients and authentic engagement with every medical professional they meet in the course of their work.

As a forward-thinking organisation, we will continue to strive to innovate and implement unique strategies that not only meet the needs of our HCPs and patients but shape the healthcare and pharmaceutical environment in which we operate.

We support a diverse workforce and a culture of inclusion to foster a respectful, equitable and inclusive environment.  

We value the unique contribution that each person brings to ST and recognise that we accomplish more when people from diverse backgrounds with different talents and ideas work together. Only through the contribution of people with different identities, backgrounds, and perspectives can we continue to innovate and improve lives.

We are committed to providing a supportive and caring work environment that is supported by generous benefits. We offer flexible work and leave options, generous superannuation contributions, as well as health and lifestyle benefits..

At ST we encourage appropriate further training or study and provide support developing our people to meet their individual career aspirations.

We know development is a joint responsibility. At our discretion, ST provides the necessary training to retain relevant accreditation qualifications. Employees who are keen to develop further are encouraged to discuss potential opportunities with their direct manager.
