Johnson & Johnson

Johnson & Johnson was founded at the end of the 19th century by three Johnson brothers. Originally a family business with fourteen employees, established in 1886 and located in a building of an ex-wallpaper factory in New Jersey, the company had a clear vision to improve medical care on all levels, a vision that drives Johnson & Johnson forward even today, over hundred and thirty years later.

Since then, the company that started with the production of surgical sutures and sterile gauzes has become the healthcare industry leader. Every day, Johnson & Johnson products affect the lives of more than one billion people around the world. The company brings the results of the latest scientific research to the patients and customers to improve their lives, one person at a time. All Johnson & Johnson employees globally are united in a common mission: To help people everywhere live longer, healthier, happier lives.

Johnson & Johnson Global Services, the global shared services organization supporting the commercial businesses of Johnson & Johnson, performs selected tasks across regions and sectors using standardized end-to-end processes and state-of-the-art technology. The vision of Johnson & Johnson Global Services is “to be trusted business partners who deliver increasing value by utilizing globally standardized services that enable the power of Johnson & Johnson.” There are more than 3,000 employees in Human Resources, Finance and Procurement who work for Johnson & Johnson Global Services in key service centers located in Manila, Suzhou, Prague, Bogota, and Tampa, as well as in local country-based hubs. The one in Prague has a truly international environment, with employees of more than 40 nationalities speaking more than 33 different languages. Even though English is the main communication language in the organization, it’s great being part of such a cosmopolitan setup.
