A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a Pre-Registration Trainee Pharmacy Technician to join our expanding and friendly pharmacy department on a 2-year fixed term training post. Learn while you earn!

As a Pre-registration Trainee Pharmacy Technician apprentice, you will undertake an approved Level 3 or level 4 qualification (dependant on knowledge provider). As the programme is delivered as an apprenticeship, you will be expected to spend time in the workplace and 20% off the job learning. This usually means one day a week for study and workplace training for the remaining 4 days a week learning professional knowledge, skills and completing required competencies.

On successful completion of this 2-year training programme you will be eligible to register with the pharmacy professional body, the General Pharmaceutical Council, and become a registered Pharmacy Technician.

Work based training will involve working alongside all different members of the pharmacy team to gain knowledge, skills and experience into the core areas of pharmacy practice, as well as the wider working of the KCHFT pharmacy team.

As a team we provide a wide range of pharmacy services including in the following areas:
• Community hospitals across Kent
• Supporting patients in their own-home
• Specialist Services, which includes specialist nursing, special schools, ADHD clinics, dental services and more.
• Sexual Health services
• Quality & Governance
• Education & Training

You will also spend time with pharmacy services in other organisations to develop a broader knowledge and skill set. As Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust does not have its own dispensary for issuing medicines, some of your time will be spent with a partner organisation to develop those related core skills and competencies required for successful programme completion.

We constantly strive to challenge what we as a pharmacy team can do and to develop pharmacy technician roles in line with national strategy. We aim to deliver a first-class patient focused service and our teams have won national recognition in supporting patients to self-administer, our work in schools and collaborative working supporting pre-registration pharmacy technicians.
