I wanted to work in a place where I could make a difference. What makes Spark stand out is our drive to collaborate to get the work done – it’ just an amazing team to work with.

Excited to be part of the team at Spark striving to bring novel gene therapies to market to transform the lives of patients suffering from rare diseases.

I joined Spark because we’re focused on making a real difference to change the quality of life with patients with rare diseases. Our commitment to patients is what makes me come to work every day!

It’s more than just a job for those working at Spark. There’s a collective passion to make a real difference in the diseases we’re researching, which has led to incredible advancements.

After being with Spark since nearly the inception, I continue to be inspired by the work that we do. Spark is striving to make the world a better place in which to live.

Working at Spark speaks to my compassionate side. It is truly fulfilling to work with such great people and knowing Spark is helping to improve so many lives.

I joined Spark for a new challenge. I have always worked in the research field but wanted the challenge of not only a new therapeutic area but working for a young, energized company. One of the best professional decisions I’ve made!

I joined Spark Therapeutics after learning about the remarkable work being done here to treat genetic diseases.  Seeing the improvements in our patients motivates me to work towards the success of these genetic treatments.

During my time at Spark, I have been able to take on new challenges and grow my skillset. Recently, I moved into a new position that will further allow me to develop my expertise and experience. And I have had a lot of fun doing it!

Working at Spark has provided the opportunity to collaborate with a best-in-class team of scientists, clinicians and business people to bring novel solutions to the development of gene therapy, with the ultimate goal of supporting patients.

Spark is a workplace where people respect and appreciate each other. Work here has a purpose that is evident in employees’ attitudes and motivation. Spark is a place where you can make a difference in the world.

There is nothing more rewarding than connecting with patients on an emotional level. Hearing their stories of hope makes me proud to help support a patient’s journey.

My work matters because I have the great opportunity to meaningfully contribute to our mission: deliver potentially life-altering transformation for people and families affected by genetic diseases.

Spark is at the forefront of gene therapy. I wanted to be a part of this novel therapy for patients and be able to apply the years of training and education I have received to advance Spark programs.

Spark’s unwavering drive to bring life-altering therapies to patients today while diligently developing the next generation of gene therapies for tomorrow is one aspect that makes Spark a unique place to work.

I am here because Spark is making the change I want to see in this industry.

The reason I joined Spark is because of the revolutionary science that is being produced here. Many of my former colleagues raved about how great it is to work here. The people hold each other at very high standards and are respectful of each other.

I’m proud to work at Spark to provide expert-level IT support to those that work on gene therapy that may one day change the lives of our patients. There is a real connection to what I do and how it makes a positive impact.

I love bringing my best to Spark every day, because I know every one of my colleagues is doing the same. It’s a powerful combination of talent and energetic engagement.

Spark is a collaborative company, with remarkable individuals who champion the patient. It’s gratifying to know that by providing the proper workplace environment to my colleagues, I’m involved in making a difference in their work and the people they touch.

We do great science here–science that really helps patients. There is a lack of treatments available for patients who have genetic disease. We devote ourselves fully to them with our passion, energy and intellect.

At Spark, the preclinical operations team supports gene therapy research and development, process development, quality control development, preclinical testing, and clinical gene therapy vector production. I am excited that our preclinical operations team is valued in Spark.
