Life @ EDB

Life at EDB is dynamic, collaborative, and purpose-driven.
We work hard because the mission matters. We forge strong bonds because the journey does too.

What you can expect

Culture of collaboration

The work is fast-paced and varied, and you will collaborate closely with teammates across functions, drawing on diverse expertise and perspectives to execute ideas and solve complex challenges. We value thoughtful debate, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to excellence.

Growing together at EDB

Mentorship and teamwork are central to how we operate. We succeed not as individuals but as one Team EDB, ensuring that we collectively achieve success for Singapore.

Purposeful work, meaningful connections

Beyond the work, we believe great teams are built on genuine connections.

From self-organised interest groups to organisation-wide events including Formula 1 and National Day watch parties with our families, and our very own EDB Dinner & Dance, you will have many opportunities to build friendships and celebrate milestones together.

Hear from our people

Moving from the private sector to EDB – I’ll do it all over again. EDB has been an exciting learning journey for me. Here, opportunities abound to take on a wide range of work and pick up valuable, differentiating skillsets. With excellent mentors, I also learnt to see the world through different lenses. I enjoy engaging with corporate executives, thought leaders and industry professionals, which puts me at the forefront of global economic developments.

The people in EDB are truly what makes the difference – they are some of the most committed and passionate people I have ever met. When working together as a team, you know you are getting the best from everyone. I also appreciate that EDB values people with different capabilities and experiences. Many of the people I work with here were previously from the industry, professional firms and even entrepreneurs. Everyone brings something unique to the table, be it perspectives or skillsets, and the value we create as a team is exponential.

3 years in, I’m still surprised by how much ownership I get to take on real-world projects. Starting in the Associate Programme and now with the Healthcare team, I’ve seen firsthand how EDB’s work shapes industries and creates meaningful opportunities for Singaporeans. What keeps me here is the people – driven and genuinely invested in each other’s growth.
