Working with us means working with ‘best in class’ teams. But don’t just take our word for it… We were delighted to receive two awesome recognitions at this year’s APAC SSON (Shared Services and Outsourcing Network) Impact Awards. Our teams in Pune and Kuala Lumpur were awarded honorary mentions in both the Finance Transformation and Business Resiliency categories, demonstrating industry leadership and outstanding practice in these areas. Congratulations to all!
Building a better world, brick by brick… 🏠 With 8 hours of paid volunteering leave, our teams have the chance to make a difference in the communities where they live and work. Supporting Habitat For Humanity, a charity that constructs affordable homes to tackle housing poverty, a team of eager builders from our Memphis site donned their hard hats in the sunshine. They installed boards and windows to the structures and removed debris from the site, helping to make the new homeowner’s dream come true. Our volunteer construction crew are members of our UNITY Employee Inclusion Group, which works to improve cultural awareness and understanding across our workforce.
An exceptional award for an exceptional team. We’re thrilled that Smith+Nephew has received a Gallup Exceptional Workplace Award for 2024.

Function is paramount in medical devices, but that doesn’t mean we can’t deliver it with style. We had a fantastic evening celebrating RENASYS EDGE winning the Red Dot Award for Design Concept 2024 in the Medical Devices and Technology Category. The Red Dot awards commend new innovations and groundbreaking designs. EDGE’s patient-centric concept was recognized for its combination of a discreet, comfortable design, enabling patients to continue with their daily lives while receiving prescribed negative pressure wound therapy. Congratulations to all the winners!
We hope your day is as “pak-ed with choi” as ours! Our team at Smith+Nephew Penang have come together to create an ‘Oasis Garden’ at the site. Constructed and maintained by the team, with the guidance of the Penang Agriculture Department, they have just harvested their first crop of Pak Choi!
Why pursue a career in Manufacturing or Engineering? We were discussing exactly that with students at the Women in Manufacturing and Engineering (WiME) event in Hull (UK). Our STEM team, a group of Smith+Nephew volunteers who work to inspire others to follow a path in STEM, were pleased to meet the innovators and talent of the future. They shared insights to their roles and their academic and professional journeys.
What do 160 high school students, parents and educators from the Memphis area have in common? They all joined us at our Brooks Road site in Memphis to celebrate National Manufacturing Day! Our team were excited to give our guests a tour of the manufacturing facilities and talk to them about the wide variety of career opportunities available within the manufacturing industry.
Improving quality of life sits at the heart of our purpose, Life Unlimited, and one of the ways that we put people first is by championing volunteering in our local communities. Our team in Italy have been using their volunteering hours to support nearby cooperative, Cascina Nibai - part of Cascina Biblioteca Cooperativa, in delivering their social inclusion activities at the farmstead. The team helped out with the childrens’ activities, cleaned the premises and prepared Christmas boxes.
We were pleased to be a supporting sponsor of the AdvaMed MedTech Conference in Toronto. Deepak Nath, our CEO, and John Rogers, our CFO, participated in enlightening conversations on how Smith+Nephew is using data to improve patient outcomes and AI to enhance personalization, automation, and overall quality of patient care. Our Talent team were also on hand to connect with the future innovators of our field.
