Coloplast UK

The UK arm of Danish medical devices company Coloplast, based at Peterborough Business Park, with apprenticeships reported in the Peterborough press.

About Coloplast UK

Coloplast is a medical devices company, described in Peterborough press coverage as a medical devices specialist. Its UK site supports customers through roles such as customer care and a home delivery service.

Coloplast's global early careers page says it is about improving the lives of millions of people and describes itself as a caring company. We did not find a UK-specific mission.

Its UK headquarters are at Peterborough Business Park, Lynch Wood. A 2018 article said the UK business had about 500 employees, and ranked 68th in the Sunday Times 100 Best Companies list that year. That figure is old, so check the current position.

We did not find current culture information. In 2018 the country manager said the company works to keep its "infrastructure, work environment, and support systems" strong so staff can perform well; that is the company's view, and it is dated.

A March 2018 article reported five apprentices at Peterborough in Customer Care and the home delivery service, including one studying a Level 3 Business Administration NVQ over 18 months with City College Peterborough. The global early careers page lists student jobs, internships and a Master Thesis Programme based in Denmark, but names no UK roles. Early careers evidence is as at 2018.
