About the Role
We’re looking for a self-motivated pharmacist to join the team as a Dispensary Pharmacist at Slade Pharmacy Geelong.

This is a hands-on dispensary-based role where you will oversee the day-to-day operation of dispensary services across both hospital and retail settings, ensuring the safe, accurate and timely supply of medicines while supporting high standards of patient care and customer service.

This role is ideal for a pharmacist who enjoys working within the dispensary and wants to further develop their hospital pharmacy skills in a supportive environment.

• Oversee day-to-day dispensary operations to ensure safe, accurate and efficient medication supply
• Support medication safety, quality use of medicines and compliance with professional standards
• Assist with inventory management and stock control activities
• Work collaboratively with pharmacists, technicians and multidisciplinary teams to deliver high-quality patient care
• Contribute to quality assurance and continuous improvement initiatives
• Support the Pharmacy Manager with dispensary workflow and operational activities as required
