We are looking for an ambitious and motivated pharmacy assistant to join our current team in this friendly and forward thinking pharmacy department.

This is a full time role for 37.5 hours per week. Part time and flexible working will also be considered.

You will join our friendly team of pharmacy assistants, technicians and pharmacists who work together to manage the accurate and efficient supply of both dispensed and stock medicines to the hospital patients and our community clients.

Yeovil Hospital's iCARE model, which has established the principles of exemplary patient care, patient and employee experience, has attracted national interest and is embedded in everything we do, following our vision to care for our patients as if they are one of our family.
