The successful candidate must be registered as a Pharmacy Technician with the GPhC, and be an Accuracy Checking Technician (ACT) or be willing to undertake this qualification.

This role is a great opportunity to continue your professional and pharmacy career.

The successful applicant will:

  • Be confident in providing accurate, technical expert knowledge on the accurate supply of the medicines we dispense and services we offer, letting customers know that we're here to help.
  • Build great relationships with the Pharmacy team and inspiring them to work to a high standard to ensure we give our customers and patients the best care possible.
  • Look at where we can improve, whether it's the services we offer or our approach to great customer care.
  • You'll be part of helping us get the best from our teams.

What you’ll be doing day to day:

Working with our teams to accurately check customer prescriptions, whilst meeting regulatory and company standards.

Your duties will include:

  • Responsibility for legal, safe & ethical decision-making in the pharmacy
  • Conducting the final accuracy check for prescriptions that have been clinically checked by a pharmacist
  • Complying with legal and professional requirements and accepted guidance on professional practice
  • Seeking opportunities to engage external stakeholders to secure locally commissioned services and drive services and items
  • Delivering efficient dispensary operations and ensures dispensing losses are minimised
  • Ordering medicines, labelling, dispensing and endorsing of prescriptions

You'll need to have lots of Pharmacy experience, be registered as a Pharmacy Technician with the General Pharmaceutical Council and if you have an Accuracy Checking Pharmacy Technician qualification that's a bonus, if you don't have this then we will be more than happy to train you.
