Belfast, United Kingdom McKay Pharmacy Full time

McKay Pharmacy is currently seeking a focused and diligent person to operate our Pillroll Automated Dispensing machine within our head office branch on Westminster Avenue, Belfast.

The post-holder will be responsible for the operation of this system, preparing medications for our patients with the support of the dispensing team, and generating the automated rolls of prescription items. The process will also involve scanning and logging picture evidence of each item dispensed.

The process is technology driven and would be an ideal fit for either an experienced dispenser who is seeking a new challenge, or someone with a strong IT background and high levels of accuracy and attention to detail who is interested in developing a career within the pharmacy industry. Previous dispensary experience is preferable, but not essential as full training will be given.

We offer a very competitive hourly rate, inclusive of a supplementary acknowledgment of the high level of technical ability and accuracy required to carry out the role competently.

- Proven track record demonstrating a high level of competency in IT systems, with the ability to confidently learn new software
- Must be willing to undertake a recognised pharmacy services qualification, if not already a qualified dispenser
- Display excellent attention to detail, with high levels of accuracy
- Be a problem solver, display initiative, a good finisher, with a willingness to learn
- Must be able to manage a fast turnaround of work
- Must be flexible and able to work the pattern outlined above, including late night and Saturday working.

- NVQ Level 2 Pharmacy Services qualification (or equivalent).

**Job Types**: Full-time, Permanent

- Casual dress
- Employee discount
- Wellness programmes

Schedule:
