  • Working with evolving technologies within store, you will have the opportunity to work with new systems, which helps to develop the traditional dispensing processes to further improve patient safety and release your time to spend more time with patients.

Requirements:

  • Desire to learn and complete the Dispenser training programme (NVQ2)
  • Current and valid UK right to work. This role is not eligible for sponsorship for a Skilled Worker Visa.
