Are you a Pharmacy Technician looking for a role where you can really shape how a dispensary runs? We are looking for a Dispensary Manager to take responsibility for the day-to-day running of our dispensary service for Framlingham Surgery. You’ll be mainly based at Framlingham, with some working at Earl Soham, and you will play a key role in making sure our dispensary service is safe, organised, and works well for both patients and staff.
About the role
This is a hands-on management role where you will oversee how the dispensary operates across both sites. You will manage the dispensary team, keep a close eye on workflows, stock, and standards, and make sure medicines are dispensed safely and accurately. You will also support wider pharmacy and prescribing activity by helping to resolve patient and prescription queries, working closely with GPs, pharmacists, and the practice team. You will take the lead on areas such as controlled drugs and DSQS, and act as the main point of contact for dispensary matters within the practice.
About you
You will be a registered Pharmacy Technician (GPhC) with a Level 3 qualification, and you will already have good experience working in a dispensary environment ideally in general practice or primary care. You will be comfortable managing people, organising workloads, and keeping oversight of what’s going on across more than one site. You’ll be practical, organised, and confident taking responsibility for standards, safety, and compliance. Experience with controlled drugs, stock management, and DSQS is important. Experience of audits or inspections would be helpful, but not essential.
