Merial is a world-leading, innovation-driven animal health company, providing a comprehensive range of products to enhance the health and well-being of a wide range of animal species, from pharmaceutical drugs to biological vaccines to wellness products.

They believe in a smart, solutions and prevention-focused approach to meeting today's animal health challenges and focus above all on one critical question: What does the world need from an animal health company? The animal health industry is increasingly global for many reasons, including the multi-national complexity of today's food-producing companies; the cross-border risks of infectious animal diseases; and the growing desire for pet companionship in every corner of the globe.

It’s a dynamic industry, so they believe their employees should be too. Merial establishes structured career paths and offers clear support to help their people move along them successfully. Their programs vary from function-specific skills to broader initiatives that apply to every role in the company, such as cultivating innovative thinking. As part of Sanofi, Merial employees have access to many additional training opportunities all over the world.

Merial employs 6,900 people and operates in more than 150 countries worldwide with over €2.5 billion of sales in 2015.
