Careers at Putney
Putney is growing fast. We seek great people with experience in both animal health and human pharma as we build out our team. If you are interested in becoming a part of our team, please send us your resume directly, in confidence, even if the perfect position isn’t posted. We will be adding a number of positions in 2011 that aren’t posted yet and even more people in 2012. We look forward to hearing from you.
We seek A players: people who drive growth, thrive on change, constantly take on new challenges and overcome impediments to achieve what others thought impossible.
Our hiring process seeks to identify candidates who are:
- Successful performers
- Who build rather than maintain
- Who enjoy team work
- Who are passionate about building a better animal health company that listens to veterinarians
We seek people who want to work hard while savoring the thriving communities and natural beauty of Maine with their families.
Putney is not for everyone: standards are high, change is rapid, challenges are tough and our evaluation process to find A players who fit the defined needs of each position using methods developed by ghSMART is intense. If you are interested, please send us your resume and a cover letter electronically. We prefer to hear from and insist on working with candidates directly. If an application comes to us from a search firm and we are interested in the candidate for a position, we will honor the firm’s fee if we are not in direct communication with the candidate already. However, we communicate directly with candidates in order to learn about the person.
Putney offers competitive compensation packages commensurate with experience and position, including bonus plan and stock options, and a dynamic opportunity to grow professionally.
