Why Akorn?

At Akorn, you’ll have the opportunity to work with a talented team, experience many challenges and grow professionally. You won’t be a number. You won’t get lost in the shuffle. You’ll contribute directly to the company’s success.

That’s because, at the present time, we’re relatively small compared to large, multi-national pharmaceutical companies. We generate about $70 million in revenue annually and we have about 340 dedicated professionals. We’re entrepreneurial. We’re quick to market. We’re a leader in several exciting niches in the market place. And, due to our new product pipeline, we have many exciting days of steady growth ahead of us.

We manufacture specialty pharmaceuticals, primarily ophthalmics and parenterals. We market other products, such as vaccines, as well. We maintain a best-in-class third party development and manufacturing capability. We continue to invest in these areas and expect to launch new products on a steady basis both in the near-term and more distant future. To execute these strategies, we continue to work hard to attract and retain the best talent available.

Akorn is not a place where employees have "jobs." It’s a place where we have careers, a place where contributions are celebrated and recognized, a place where tomorrow’s opportunities and challenges will be even more exciting than today’s, a place where trust and open communication are core values.

Check us out! We think you’ll be glad you did.
