Pharmacist - New Licence, Wonderful Opportunity

Minerva Pharmacy – Brand New Pharmacy – Amazing Opportunity

Fantastic location and an unmissable chance for an ambitious pharmacist to lead this start up pharmacy. Part time / job share considered

Minerva Clinical Services have been awarded a brand-new pharmacy licence and will be opening in the Autumn. We are located in Heyford Park, Upper Heyford in Oxfordshire. This is a wonderful large village location with huge redevelopment and enhanced community features such as a bistro, small boutique hotel, and local independent shops, school and community centre. We have a brand-new building of 150m2 which is being fitted out to the highest standards. As we are owned by the local GP partnership, Alchester Medical Group, you will have unrivalled support to succeed. We will have 4 consulting rooms to enable GPs and nurses to occasionally work with you on-site to further enhance the service and the working environment.

We already have a highly experienced pharmacy manager in place and have had a fantastic response to our advertisements for dispensing staff and counter assistants. Our goal is to make this a growing independent pharmacy at the heart of Heyford Park and the neighbouring communities and this starts with the recruitment of the right people.

Using your skills and experience we anticipate that you will grow the service quickly and will aim to offer a wide variety of NHS services such as blood pressure readings and blood glucose monitoring.

Training and support will be provided and we will aid you in developing your own ideas to achieve your own goals. This role is ideal for pharmacists who are keen to make a career move to a more clinical-based role in community pharmacy and to undertaking the Independent Prescribing course in the future. Funding and support will be provided to achieve this.
