Learn more about Sinan’s experience in the video above, from what teaching provides him, to how he has developed and furthered his career, his passion for baking, and, of course, raising his kids.

In terms of professional development, one of the things that Sinan values at Johnson & Johnson, is the opportunity to develop and assume new responsibilities. “Grow” is an internal program which allows talent to widen their skillset by offering opportunities to take on a new role and get insights into a different area outside of their usual remit for a few months.

His first Grow assignment was as a Project Lead in Global Engineering and Property Services (EMPS), followed by moving into his current role in pharmaceutical solids. Sinan relished the new challenge which Johnson & Johnson has provided him, and enjoys the new perspectives it has given to his work life and career. This experience has not only deepened his understanding of the company but also allowed him to master new skills and experience different elements of the pharma industry.
