Our People

Who works for McKesson UK?

All kinds of talented people join us, but what links our diverse skills and personalities together is the relentless commitment to our patients and customers. We care passionately about inspiring more positive lives, and investing in our colleagues means they can achieve their career goals, which helps us to offer exceptional healthcare services.

Across our organisation, we are all driven by a shared purpose: to create a healthier world where more people can live more positive lives. Our values guide the way and help us ensure we always do the right thing, by acting with integrity, putting the customer first, demonstrating accountability, being respectful and delivering excellence.

Career Development

We are big advocates of what we’ve dubbed ‘crazy paving careers’. Like crazy paving, these are careers that do not follow a structured linear pattern. Instead, we encourage our colleagues to think sideways as well as upwards, moving between different areas, departments and businesses to broaden their experience and skills.

To ensure everyone gets the most out of their McKesson careers, we always set clear goals, give meaningful feedback, and provide dedicated 1:1 time and coaching throughout the year. You’ll also have formal reviews at the midpoint and end of each year, where you’ll be able to discuss your performance with your manager, examining not just what you’ve achieved but also how you’ve achieved it.

We try to give our colleagues as many opportunities as possible to learn about our business, develop their skills, expand their knowledge, get up-to-the-minute training, and become an expert in their chosen field. One great way to learn is through our online platform, mylearn, which puts a library of over 1,000 expert articles and e-learning modules right at your fingertips.
