The Living Well Partnership brings together five well-established GP practices in Southampton, with eight sites, which have joined forces to create a super-partnership that can deliver exceptional clinical care.

The Pharmacy Technician will work as a member of the GP Practice Pharmacy Services Team supporting the development and delivery of safe, effective and efficient systems for repeat prescribing, medicines optimisation, reducing medicines waste and maximising patient outcomes. Working alongside the Senior Pharmacy Technician and Clinical Pharmacists, to contribute to high-quality, cost-effective and safe medicines management. This will include medicines reconciliation post discharge as well as monitoring near patient testing for patients taking high risk medications.

You will be required to undertake the CPPE pathway which will equip you with the necessary knowledge, skills and experience to work in a patient-facing role in primary care networks, as part of a multidisciplinary team. The Pathway will take 15 months to complete.
