Research and Development

At Reckitt, we are constantly looking for new ways to create differentiated products that provide better, safer and more sustainable experiences for our consumers.

But our work doesn’t stop there. Once on the market, we work relentlessly to expand into new markets and keep our products on the shelves for consumers.

And that’s where R&D Operations, Regulatory and other colleagues come in, providing access for consumers around the world by helping to overcome challenges, such as raw material shortages and regulatory changes.

If you’re interested in using science to solve some of the world’s biggest challenges, a career in R&D could be for you.
