Job Description
Prothena’s success is driven by our people. We are dedicated to attracting individuals who share our vision to improve human health by putting patients first.
But it’s not just about what we do at Prothena, it’s how we do it. That’s why we hire creative and courageous individuals who support one another and are not afraid to try new ideas. Our culture reflects our values which are brought to life every day by the following characteristics:
SELFLESS - Patients come first and we’re in this together. Our environment is collaborative and we measure success through our collective accomplishments.
