- Maintain records of the purchase, storage, and supply of medicines in compliance with standard operating procedures (SOP’s)
- Communicate effectively with colleagues to ensure others can carry out their work efficiently

The successful post holder will be based within a pharmacy department and activities will require regular interaction with health professionals within other departments of the hospital.
