Job description

Are you a GPhC-registered Pharmacy Technician looking for a rewarding role where your expertise genuinely improves lives?

We are recruiting confidentially for a Part‑Time Pharmacy Technician (30 hours per week) to join a specialist neurological care centre based in Gloucester. This is an excellent opportunity to play a key role in medication safety, governance, and service development within a highly specialist care environment.

This position offers the chance to work at the heart of a multidisciplinary clinical team, supporting people with complex neurological conditions. You will have real autonomy and visibility, ensuring safe, effective, and compliant medication management while influencing best practice across the service.

In this role you will work alongside the GP service, multidisciplinary team, nursing teams, and the pharmacy provider to ensure medications are ordered, dispensed, received, and stored safely and efficiently. You will act on medication and safety alerts to prioritise resident safety, attend and contribute to monthly multidisciplinary meetings, and support clinical governance, audits, and service improvement initiatives. You will provide pharmacy expertise and guidance to both clinical and non‑clinical teams, escalated quality concerns in line with internal policies, and ensure compliance with GPhC guidance and professional standards.

The service is a 60‑bed specialist neurological centre delivering 24‑hour nursing and therapy support for individuals with long‑term neurological conditions. It focuses on slow‑stream rehabilitation, maximising independence, comfort, and quality of life in a well‑equipped and supportive environment.

To be considered, candidates must hold current GPhC registration, a Level 3 Diploma in the Principles and Practice for Pharmacy Technicians or equivalent BTEC/NVQ Level 3 qualification, and a minimum of two years’ supervised, practical experience in a pharmacy setting. A collaborative, professional, and proactive approach is essential.

The role offers a full‑time equivalent salary of £39,908, pro rata for 30 hours per week, along with 33 days annual leave including bank holidays plus your birthday off. Additional benefits include career development and ongoing professional training, wellbeing support, access to a rewards and discounts platform, life assurance, pension contribution, 24/7 GP access, and financial wellbeing support.

If you are seeking a confidential opportunity where you can make a meaningful difference within a specialist care setting, I would welcome a confidential conversation. Please reply to this email or contact me directly to discuss further details.
