As a Senior Pharmacy Assistant, you'll play a vital role in supporting safe, timely access to medicines for patients across the service. From coordinating medication supply to assisting with patient-focused activities, you'll be part of a collaborative team working to improve health outcomes in a regional community.

Every day, you'll contribute by:

  • Guiding and supporting team members, contributing to a capable and confident pharmacy support workforce
  • Strengthening processes and quality practices that enhance safety, efficiency, and patient experience

Let's talk about you

You're someone who brings both precision and care to your work. You take pride in getting the details right while staying focused on the bigger picture—supporting patients and teams to achieve the best possible outcomes. With a proactive mindset and a strong sense of responsibility, you step up when needed, contribute ideas, and help create a positive, respectful team environment grounded in compassion, integrity, dignity, innovation, and courage.

Here's what will help you thrive in this role:

  • A relevant pharmacy support qualification and strong understanding of pharmacy services
  • Experience managing workload priorities and working independently within scope
  • Confident communication skills that build trust with colleagues and patients
  • Solid computer literacy and ability to maintain accurate records and reports

You'll stand out from the crowd if you have experience in a hospital or regional healthcare setting and/or familiarity with pharmacy information systems.

Most importantly, you're motivated by making a meaningful difference—supporting safe, high-quality care for a community that values what you do.
