We’re looking for a motivated and detail-focused Pharmacy Support Worker to join our dynamic Medicines Distribution Centre team. This is a fantastic opportunity to play a vital role behind the scenes of frontline care, ensuring ambulance crews and clinicians have the medicines they need, exactly when they need them.

Personal and professional development and training opportunities.
Salary Sacrifice schemes for cars or push bikes.
Access to occupational health and counselling services.
Award winning wellbeing hub
Access to NHS discounts, offering NHS employees a range of money-saving deals.
Other than in exceptional circumstances, the starting salary for staff new to the NHS will be the bottom point of the band to which they have been appointed.
