Transforming Access to Medicines
Transforming Access to Medicines is an NHS Wales programme to set up a shared Pharmacy Technical Service for Wales. As part of this programme we are looking to recruit production operatives to support the transition of the existing service to the new model.
About the Role
The successful candidates will be placed into IP5 where they will be integrated into the staffing structure and will be trained in the aseptic preparation of medicines and will work within specialist cleanroom facilities. NHS Wales prepares a range of products including injectable SACT, intravenous nutrition, radiopharmaceuticals and other CIVAs products and your experience and training will vary depending on to which unit you are assigned.
Responsibilities
This post has been established to support an existing Production unit in Wales to support the Transforming Access to Medicines (TrAMs) Programme. As part of that team you will be involved in preparing ready to use injectable medicines for a wide range of patients including medicines used on Intensive Care Units, Nuclear Medicine and those used in cancer treatments.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
All work will be undertaken in specialist clean room facilities operated under strict regulatory standards. We are looking for people with good manipulation skills and an understanding of aseptic technique. This may be experience within pharmacy services or transferable skills gained in other areas of practice.
Understand and adhere to all safety guidance and disposal legislation, particularly in relation to COSHH and HSE requirements, handling of cytotoxic and/or radioactive products and use and disposal of sharps and other pharmaceutical waste
