Follow Your Passion – Join our Care-ageous Family – Advance Your Career

At Acadia, we’re committed to our purpose: we fight disease so more you shines through. We approach each day with the mindset of a scientist, dedication of a healthcare provider and heart of a caregiver.

Every Acadian brings curiosity, ingenuity and a drive to forge new paths. We’re in it for the long term, and are committed to developing our pipeline for the people who need us most, today and far into the future. At Acadia, our mission is personal. Many of us have experienced the devastating impact of neurological disorders firsthand. Our patients aren’t just patients – they’re our mothers, our grandfathers, our daughters, and our friends.
They’re people we love, and they’re people we fight for.

As Care-ageous Warriors, we go far beyond our treatments to support and champion our patients, and our communities. As part of the Acadia family, your perspective, passion and expertise play a critical role in our mission to elevate lives through science, enabling brighter moments for patients and their loved ones.

Important Notice for Candidates – Be Aware of Fraudulent Recruiting Activity

Acadia Pharmaceuticals has become aware of fraudulent recruiting activity being circulated via email and LinkedIn by individuals impersonating Acadia Talent Acquisition employees. These communications may appear legitimate due to an official-looking Acadia email address or website, referencing of an actual recruiter and/or manager at Acadia (easily found on LinkedIn), and/or offer documents falsely signed by an Acadia executive. The impostor uses the incentive of a job interview and job offer to solicit sensitive personal information from the intended victim.

Please note that the Acadia Talent Acquisition and HR Team will ONLY interact with a candidate from “Acadia-pharm.com” domain sourced emails. We do not request sensitive personal information, such as a Social Security Number, or payments of any kind during the interview or job offer process. Acadia strongly recommends individuals, who receive email solicitations, to carefully verify the authenticity of the correspondence before responding. Never provide personal information or click on links if you are unsure a communication’s legitimacy. If in doubt, please contact talentacquisition@acadia-pharm.com to verify. If you believe you are the victim of fraud, please contact your local law enforcement or file a claim with the FBI Internet Crimes division.
