You will ideally have an NVQ Level 2 in Pharmacy Services (or equivalent qualification), however candidates without this will be considered for a Band 2 post, progressing to Band 3 once our in-house training and competency package has been achieved. Previous experience working within a regulated environment, in cleanrooms or laboratories is desirable but, as all training will be given in-house, it is not essential.

This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated, methodical person who is able to work well as part of a small team, willing to undertake work within a cleanroom environment and able to manage their own workload unsupervised

Please note that this is a full time post working Monday - Friday, 8.45am - 5pm
