Our approach

Based on three pillars

As we expand and continue to change and reshape our business for sustained, profitable growth, we are recruiting a wider and growing diversity of talent, with different employee types, needs and desires. 

 

As a result, we believe a one-size-fits-all approach to Talent Acquisition no longer fits the needs of our business.

Be You @ Bayer

 

 

Bayer’s new Employee Value Proposition (EVP) will help us attract and retain the talent we need. It is based on extensive research, listening and analysis. It reflects the reality of today, and our aspirations for the future; helping us prioritize and shape our HR activities to bring this proposition to life. The way our people will experience our proposition is through our employer branding  “Be You. Be Bayer.”

 

“Be You. Be Bayer.” provides a flexible framework to express the EVP in different parts of the business, focussing on what we have to offer and what we expect in return.

 

A build on the new EVP

We’ll build simple, clear and emotive messaging using the following as a guide:

 

1. The 3 EVP pillars or themes

2. Evidence from around Bayer of what we offer employees (the get):

  • the many parts of our business, and the different opportunities within
  • HR activities and initiatives that shape the experience for employees 
  • the Bayer culture

3. Life values that articulate which behaviours we expect from employees in return (the give).

 

We’ve linked the ‘give’ and the ‘get’ with some example headlines to show how we might describe the experience for employees. These are global examples. We encourage you to update with local examples/evidence. The more tangible the better. 

 

The 3 EVP pillars or themes

Work at speed. Work with passion. Work at the time and place when you are at your best. Work with the best minds to innovate and solve the most challenging and interesting problems. Collaborate on projects that matter. Know that your work contributes to our vision “Health for all, Hunger for none”.

 

Purposeful challenge

 

Example Message

Do something that moves you. Unlock your potential; challenge other’s perceptions; redefine ‘impossible’. Do this at Bayer. 

 

Be visionary. Be Bayer.
