To that end, we have developed a set of five "core" competencies. We strive to bring employees on board the journey with us who exemplify these key competencies:

  1. Service delivery - Understand who your internal and external customers are, identify their needs, and deliver value above their expectations.
  2. Active collaboration - Seek opportunities to work together across teams, function, business units, and geographies to seek success.
  3. Demonstrate agility - Proactively identify changes in our environment and act quickly, leading or embracing change.

About Us:

At Padagis, our focus is on health care products that improve people's lives. We are a market-leading generic prescription pharmaceutical company that specializes in "extended topical" medications, like creams, foams, mousses, gels, liquids, and inhalable products. It's a great time to join our team because we have a high growth trajectory with now more than 1,300 employees across six locations in the United States and Israel. We've already established a successful track record of launching first-to-file and first-to-market generic pharmaceutical products that have helped to make prescription products more affordable for patients and reduce costs for the healthcare system. Our team members work in a dynamic environment where opportunity is built on a foundation of honesty and transparency. Please consider joining our team where great things are happening and you can make a difference.


What's Next:

At Padagis, a real recruiter AND the hiring manager will review your application, not just a bot. This means we pay special attention to each application submitted for the position. While it could take a couple of days for us to get back with you, please know that we appreciate you applying for the open position and ask that you monitor your email for updates.
