Working at Ampersand
A commitment to design better and safer medicines
Ampersand Biomedicines is a Flagship Pioneering company creating better medicines that work precisely where needed in the body and nowhere else.
We're building a pioneering team that shares a drive to make a difference and works well in a fast-paced environment in a highly collaborative manner.
At Ampersand, every employee has the opportunity to learn about the most cutting-edge innovations, take chances, support their colleagues, and be generous with their ideas and opinions.

Our values
While achieving our mission of transforming patients’ lives with programmed medicines drive us, how we achieve this is equally important. Our employee-driven values capture the principles that define us and the culture we aspire to build together.
- Agility
Our work is dynamic, and priorities can shift quickly. Agility allows us to adapt with speed and flexibility, making thoughtful, data-driven decisions that help us maximize success and reach our goals. We keep an open mind, balance speed with thoughtfulness, and embrace change.
- Compassion
Compassion is central to who we are. By approaching every situation with empathy, respect, and understanding, we build trust that is essential to Ampersand’s success. It guides us to put people first—both employees and patients—and shapes the way we conduct our science. We elevate and integrate patient perspectives, respect and learn from one another, and create a diverse environment.
- Transparency
Transparency supports alignment and builds trust. Being open and clear whenever possible is essential to our success. We strive to explain the “why,” and to communicate honestly. Transparency also means assuming good intent and creating a culture where questions are always welcomed. We share information openly, remain honest, and invite thoughtful and respectful scientific debate.
