Careers


"Biocon's focus on innovation and differentiation continues to drive business performance and attract world class talent. We have been very successful in retaining talented employees who have joined us from overseas over the years. Over the last 3 years our headcount has been increasing by 1000+ each year, making us one of the largest employers in the Bio Pharma space. Recent alliances and partnerships have thrown up more opportunities for talent acquisition in some niche disciplines. An open culture & an entrepreneurial environment make working at Biocon a stimulating, enriching and rewarding experience."
