• Strong attention to detail and commitment to accuracy when handling and labeling medications.
• Ability to adapt to a technology-driven environment and learn new systems and processes.
• Interest in professional growth and development within a growing pharmacy operation.

The facility maintains a large inventory of medications and uses very clean, modern equipment to support a highly technology-driven workflow. The culture is described as laid back, collaborative, and supportive, with educated team members and clear opportunities for growth. The schedule is 2:30 pm–11:00 pm.
