About Bayer in Saudi Arabia

As part of our commitment to supporting the goals of Saudi Arabia Vision 2030, we are driven to be an employer of choice across the pharmaceutical and consumer health industries. As we hire Saudi nationals to join the Bayer family, we want to instil our passion for innovation into our new employees and empower them to support the continued advancement of this ever-evolving nation.

The next decade will be imperative to Saudi Arabia’s transformation as the Kingdom advances towards the goals of Vision 2030. These are the ways in which Bayer is committed to supporting this strategy.

 

Vision 2030 Objectives

Over the last two
years, the
proportion of
Saudi nationals at
Bayer has grown
from
19% to
42%
  • Bayer supports the achievement of the goals of the National Transformation Program and Vision 2030, including raising the participation of females in the workforce from 17% to 25%.
  • Bayer is aligned with the targets laid out by several Vision Realisation Programs including the Human Capital Development Program (through education and training) and the National Industrial Development and Logistics Program (supporting diversification in non-oil related industries and boosting employment opportunities).
  • Bayer is committed to the targets as laid out by the Government of Saudi Arabia in terms of the Saudization of jobs in the pharmaceutical sector.
  • Bayer is committed to supporting global regulatory goals, including those of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, through co-regulation and self-regulation.

 

Saudization Goals

In alignment with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, our aim is to grow the number of Saudi nationals at Bayer and nurture their career growth, from fresh graduates to future leaders in the field. Our goal is to employ 145 Saudi nationals at Bayer in our Jeddah office by 2021.

 

Over the last two years, the proportion of Saudi nationals at Bayer has grown from 19% to 42%, including 44% men and 56% women. Many of those currently in leadership or managerial roles began with us as new graduates and have swiftly risen in the ranks to achieve seniority.

Commitment to Innovation

Bayer’s passion for innovation in healthcare, agriculture and nutrition is driven by our commitment to creating a better life for all our global markets, including Saudi Arabia.

 

Bayer’s Objectives

  • Using digital transformation to support the delivery of modern healthcare and meeting Saudi Arabia’s changing societal needs.
  • Supporting less developed regions in the world by increasing access to healthcare and nutrition, and by investing in education.
  • Operating sustainably and addressing our social and ethical responsibilities as a corporate citizen, while at the same time respecting the interests of all our stakeholders.
  • Fostering Private-Public-Partnerships (PPPs) for awareness raising campaigns and developing in-country capabilities.

 

Community & Sustainability

Like Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, Bayer is committed to working towards a more sustainable future. We recently announced our goal to be carbon neutral in our operations by 2030, in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

 

Partnerships & Local Collaborations

We are committed to using innovation to improve the conditions of our world and address the biggest issues facing our global community. To achieve this vision, we believe in the power of partnerships to foster relationships and work towards the common goal of advancing life across the globe.
