Huntingdon, United Kingdom North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Are you a Pharmacy Assistant looking to further your career in a specialist area? Systemic Anti-Cancer Therapy (SACT) is a fast-paced specialism, with new therapies regularly coming into use.

Teamwork is essential to this role so you will be happy working at close quarters with colleagues in an environment that can be pressured and sometimes stressful. A desire to go the extra mile for patients is central to the ethos of our team, so you will have a caring approach and excellent verbal and written communication skills, as well as being motivated to look for service improvements.

**Main tasks will include**:

- Dispensing of intravenous and oral chemotherapy doses and supportive medications
- Stock control, including regular stock checks and ordering of stock through stores.
- Interacting with other staff and patients both in person and over the telephone, and the need to work quickly and accurately under pressure.
- Liaising with the nutrition team and external suppliers to organise the provision of parenteral nutrition for patients.
- Completion of documentation and other administrative tasks within the SACT and PN Services unit.

Full training will be provided in-house and your ongoing learning and development in this role is supported and encouraged.

Our teams work hard to be flexible and promote a health work/home life balance and so agile working options are automatically considered for all roles within the Trust. Talk to the Recruiting Manager about what this means in practice for you.

Your package with us includes a lot more than just your pay and here are a few of the additional benefits that are available to you as an employee:

- Access to the NHS Pension Scheme
- Generous Holiday Entitlement, starting at 27 days a year (for full time workers) plus bank/public holidays
- Free staff car parking on all our hospital sites during this financial year
- In-house Physiotherapy Services
- Career development and training opportunities
- Emotional Wellbeing Service covering a range of online support, access to mobile apps and 24/7 counselling services
- Subsidised meals at our hospital restaurants
- Access to exclusive discounts, cashback and vouchers via NHS Discounts and Blue Light Card

If you share our values and vision and are passionate about working with people on what matters to them, you could be a real asset to Team North West Anglia
