Pennine Healthcare \- Who we are.

Our purpose is to ‘Save Lives’, ‘Empower our Colleagues’ and ‘Enrich Our Communities’. It’s a really powerful message, and it’s not often you get to work in an industry that improves and protects life! We are a global supplier of medical devices, and we are proud to be a UK Manufacturer, in the heart of the County, here in Derby.

Did you know that we are also an EOT – Employee\-Owned Trust? That means we boast a proud team of 160 employees, each one of whom is an owner of our business. This gives us an edge, as it means we all get a say in how our business is run, and because we’re employee\-owners, we’re a special bunch who like to go that extra mile for our company. Our customers love us for it, as demonstrated by the quality of our products and the service we offer.

If you want to work and feel that special feeling, of being in a team where everyone wants to do their best and go that extra mile, then you will find it here!

Something that is super important to us:

There is a lot of corporate blurb about equal opportunities and its great, in the main because it ticks a box tells HR they comply.

Our stance is from the heart, we're united by a common purpose, and it's pretty special, what we do helps to improve and save lives. That's our overriding factor. So, regardless of race, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, neurodiversity, or background, we want people on board who want to be part of our journey.

We know that true innovation happens when diverse perspectives come together. That’s why we actively encourage applications from all walks of life because our differences are what drive us forward and fuel the meaningful work we do.

Join us, your story matters here.
