Duty Pharmacy Manager

Discover what it’s like to work in a fast paced environment, where colleagues are focused on delivering a gold standard service and care. There’s a lot more to it than dispensing medicines. Every day you’ll have the opportunity to make things better for customers in all sorts of ways, such as support for giving up smoking, reviewing customers’ use of medicines, checking blood pressure or testing for blood glucose levels. It’s very much about supporting our communities, by making the best healthcare choices available and convenient for local people.

Working alongside industry experts, you will receive local management and leadership support in whatever store you are based. Our management team comes from a variety of backgrounds so there is always a chance to learn.  

We're committed to finding the very Duty Pharmacy Manager out there. We are looking for talented and driven professionals who can deliver the highest quality healthcare service to our customers and in return, we'll provide a supportive team, detailed industry training and a varied working environment where no two days are the same. 

Should you be successful in your application, your offer will be subject to and conditional upon you providing your bank account details before your agreed start date.

As a Duty Pharmacy Manager, you'll play an important role in supporting the managing, inspiring and developing of the team to deliver a great service for our customers. You will also be responsible for: 

• Ensuring customers are at the heart of everything we do, making sure our medicines are available, carrying out tests, dispensing, and giving healthcare advice. 
• Supporting the leading, motivating and developing colleagues.
• Keeping the business and the customer safe and legal.
• Building working relationships with Primary Care Organisations (PCOs) and GP surgeries and ensuring payment claims are accurate for anything covered by the NHS.
