NHS Scotland is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce and eliminating unlawful discrimination. The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best. To this end, NHS Scotland welcomes applications from all sections of society.

NHS Lothian covers Edinburgh city, East Lothian, Midlothian and West Lothian. We are the second largest health system in NHS Scotland and one of only four teaching Boards. We have strategic partnerships with local Universities, Local Authorities and our four Integration Joint Boards. We serve a population of 900,000, providing a range of primary, community based and acute hospital services. We also provide regional and national services across a range of clinical specialties.

The vision for the Pharmacy & Medicines service is to deliver clinically led, person-centred services to ensure patients across Lothian get the best from their medicines and pharmacy services. We are focussed on creating an environment where each person in the team has the opportunity to flourish, develop and make best use of their skills.

The Royal Edinburgh Hospital is a teaching hospital located in the south side of the City of Edinburgh with an established reputation for offering the best practice across a wide variety of mental health services.

We are looking for a highly motivated, enthusiastic pharmacy technician to join the pharmacy team delivering the highest quality pharmacy services across these areas. The post holder will contribute to the development and delivery of the pharmacy distribution service in the face of emerging challenges around site capacity and patient flow. The post holder will be a key member of the REAS Pharmacy Leadership Team and Lothian wide Distribution Mangers Team. The postholder is employed within NHS Lothian and there may be a requirement to work flexibly across Lothian to meet service demands, including weekend and public holiday working.

The post requires a National Certification in Pharmaceutical Sciences, SVQ Level III qualification in pharmacy sciences, HN Unit: Procedures for Pharmacy Dispensary Checking Technicians or Accuracy Checking Pharmacy Technician Award (provided by Buttercups or NPA, 2019 or before), HNC in Pharmacy Services Development and Management or equivalent qualifications and experience to the same level.
