South Ayrshire Council, United Kingdom NHS Scotland Full time
About the Role

Key Responsibilities

You will lead, manage, and develop a team of pharmacy technicians and support workers, working closely with senior pharmacists to support the delivery of the pharmacotherapy service, including prescribing improvement plans. You will also contribute to the work of the primary care pharmacy teams to provide pharmaceutical care to patients in GP practices and care homes, ensuring safe, appropriate, and cost-effective use of medicines.

This is a critical role within the primary care pharmacy team, requiring strong team management and leadership skills. A significant part of this post will be to further develop the role of General Practice Pharmacy Technicians and Pharmacy Support Workers and to identify training needs.

A flexible and adaptable approach is necessary, with evidence of project and team work being advantageous. Good communication, organisational, and IT skills, along with the ability to work with patients and other healthcare professionals, are also required.

You will have substantial experience as a qualified pharmacy technician, registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council, with a commitment to Continuous Professional Development. The post requires SQA Higher National Unit Accuracy Checking Pharmacy Technician (ACPT) or community pharmacy equivalent, or the ability to demonstrate a highly specialised level of pharmacy knowledge, skills, clinical reasoning, and judgement, and HNC Pharmacy Services Development and Management (or currently undertaking), or equivalent qualifications to the same level. The Personal Development Award (or working towards) and a management qualification would be desirable.

Working Arrangements

This is a fixed-term/secondment position until December 2025. You will be required to work over 7 days and/or an extended working day, in accordance with AfC Terms and Conditions. A driving licence and car ownership are essential for this role.
