Why

We exist to deliver better health in more hands, every day.

We believe better health goes beyond the treatment of illness. It includes prevention, protection, confidence, comfort and everyday wellbeing. Our brands help people address essential needs that matter every day.

By focusing on the needs of consumers and the strength of our brands, we create value for the people we serve, our customers, our partners and our shareholders.

Because delivering better health in more hands, every day is good for society and good for our business.

What

We’re building a simpler, faster business focused on creating long term value through stronger brands, disciplined execution and focused investment.

Our business revolves around four product categories - Germ Protection, Household Care, Intimate Wellness and Self Care – all with long-term, attractive growth drivers. At the heart of Core Reckitt sit our 11 Powerbrands.

Our strategy is designed to accelerate growth, strengthen performance and improve competitiveness while maintaining the agility needed to respond to changing consumer and market needs.

To achieve this, we focus on five strategic drivers:

  • Growth Ahead of Categories

    We aim to grow faster than the categories in which we compete by investing behind our strongest brands, capabilities and growth opportunities.

  • Consistently Excellent Execution

    We execute with discipline and consistency across the entire value chain, aligning every part of the business to deliver seamlessly from insight to innovation, from campaign to shelf, ultimately creating value for consumers and customers.

  • Fixed Costs Transformed

    We are building a simpler and faster organisation that frees resources to reinvest behind growth and innovation.

  • Sustainability Ambitions Delivered

    We believe growing responsibly is not optional, it is essential. By reducing our environmental impact, strengthening our supply chains and building long-term trust with consumers, partners and communities, we will ensure our growth is durable and responsible.

  • Future Reckitt Leaders

    We are investing in the capabilities, skills and leadership needed to drive the next chapter of Reckitt’s success.

Together, these drivers create the foundation for sustainable growth and long-term value creation.

How

Our people and distinctive culture is our competitive advantage. It is the universal glue that connects 36,000 colleagues across 80+ countries — powering delivery at pace and with integrity in every market. Across our business, our behaviours help create a common language for how we think, collaborate, lead and make decisions.

  • Think Big. Deliver Bigger.

    We must think big and be ambitious about what is possible, then deliver bigger.

  • Team Up to Go Fast

    In our interdependent world, to deliver bigger, we must team up to go fast. The power comes from our collective energy and strength.

  • Build to Last

    We want to avoid tactical solutions, so it's important that we build to last. Delivering solutions today that will serve us tomorrow.

  • Do the Right Thing. Always

    And as we build to last, we do the right thing, always. It means speaking up with courage and listening with empathy, keeping our energy balanced with humility and care.
