Our Company Overview, Vision and Values

Company Overview

A leading medical products and technologies company for more than four decades, ConvaTec has worked for decades to support people with chronic conditions and the healthcare professionals who treat them.

A presence in 110 countries totalling nearly 10,000 employees, ConvaTec is a truly global company. With leading market positions in advanced wound care, ostomy care, continence and critical care, we continue the work we began in 1978 of researching and developing innovative healthcare solutions.

Leading market positions in advanced wound care, ostomy care, and continence care have delivered strong growth for the company, allowing us to continue the work we began in 1978 of continually researching and developing innovative healthcare solutions.

Our products provide a range of clinical and economic benefits including infection prevention, protection of at-risk skin, improved patient outcomes and reduced total cost of care.

Our Vision

At ConvaTec, we are committed to helping people with chronic health conditions lead the life they want – giving them more mobility, confidence and freedom.

With the help of almost 1,000 colleagues across the company, we’ve shaped a new long-term vision for ConvaTec:

Pioneering trusted medical solutions to improve the lives we touch.

It captures three concepts:

‘Pioneering’ expresses how we want to be innovation-driven to better serve the people who need us

‘Trusted medical solutions’ explains that what we offer covers more than products. We will provide a range of solutions (spanning devices, services and digital support) with outstanding quality, so people know they can trust and rely on them

And finally – it’s all about the people whose ‘lives we touch’. We touch people in multiple ways: physically, emotionally and psychologically. We provide solutions to serve and support people with deeply personal and challenging conditions.

Our Values

Improve care

We are passionate about serving and supporting people with challenging medical conditions.

We actively listen and respond to their needs: demonstrating deep empathy and using the insight we gain to develop and to share innovative and trusted solutions.

Deliver results

We consistently deliver excellent work, say what we do and do what we say.

We focus on what matters to the people we serve, fulfilling our own roles while working in a team with shared goals.

We keep things simple and strip out complexity wherever possible.

Grow together

We help colleagues around us grow, develop and thrive, so we can all fulfil our potential and make ConvaTec a ‘destination employer’.

We respect what each of us contributes to ConvaTec: inspiring and supporting each other to excel, while sharing in our successes and learning from mistakes.

We are candid, constructive and committed to collaboration with colleagues and partners.

Own it

We take personal ownership of all our work: taking the initiative, innovating, taking smart risks and never settling for second best.

We are bold but humble, manage ambiguity and move quickly to seize opportunities or adjust to new demands.

Do whats right

We are honest and trustworthy, meeting our obligations and operating with the highest standards of integrity. We challenge what feels wrong: no matter what the issue or circumstances.

We seek advice and input from others when in doubt.

We embrace responsibility for our contribution to local communities and make a positive economic, environmental and social impact on society.
