People Excellence Partner (M&S Singapore)

About the job

Sanofi is a leading global healthcare company going through a significant transformation. We are on a journey to attract and develop top diverse talent to join our mission to bring innovation to more and more patients around the world.

We are seeking an experienced and passionate leader to partner with the organization's leadership and People & Culture (P&C) team in Singapore as the catalyst for the deployment of the One Sanofi People Strategy for the company. The incumbent will contribute to the achievement of the company's short- and long-term goals by providing P&C strategic leadership and support (talent management, performance, organization, culture, etc) whilst ensuring alignment to Sanofi's Global Business Strategy as well as the Play to Win culture.

As a member of the Singapore People & Culture team, you will be expected to work in close partnership with the business leaders and the rest of the P&C community across the geography. You will be responsible for being the People Excellence partner for our 2 Manufacturing Sites in Singapore - Jurong & Modulus.

Jurong is a forefront facility for pharmaceutical production and formulation in Singapore, featuring two specialized chemical plants dedicated to API production. Jurong's technological capabilities encompass standard and intricate chemistry processes, including granulation and micronization for finishing product operations. Leveraging decades of experience, Jurong excels in the manufacturing of inhalation and injectable APIs, aligning seamlessly with customer specifications. Beyond manufacturing & operational excellence in manufacturing, our commitment is to protect People via creating Zero Incident Mindset Culture.

Modulus is a fully AI-powered site with technology capable of switching gears to produce up to four different vaccines or biologic drugs at the same time. And forget months or years of production change over time. With Modulus, we're looking at days or weeks. This capability of adaptation is really setting us apart from other companies in the pharmaceutical industry. What's more: The Singapore site, much like its French sibling, prioritizes sustainability. It was designed to leverage renewable electricity and generate the lowest possible carbon footprint, all part of our commitment towards net zero by 2045. Because playing to win isn't innovating with blinders on; it's holistic solutions that serve us in the long run.
