What are the responsibilities and job description for the Compounding Operatives position at Voy?
We are looking for a Compounding Operative to support the preparation of personalised medicines within our in-house pharmacy. As a fully trained member of the Compounding team, you will independently carry out compounding activities in accordance with GMP principles, approved procedures, and quality standards.
You will be responsible for producing high-quality compounded medicines while maintaining compliance with regulatory requirements and contributing to continuous improvement within the compounding operation.
This role is ideal for someone who has successfully completed compounding training or has previous pharmaceutical manufacturing experience and wants to further develop within a regulated pharmaceutical environment.
What You’ll Be Doing
Back in 2019, we launched MANUAL to tackle men's health (starting with hair loss and sexual health). A few years later, we launched Voy with a focus on weight loss. But our ambition has always been bigger. Healthcare too often treats conditions in isolation, not people as a whole, and we're on a mission to prove there's a better way.
In 2025, we evolved from MANUAL into Voy, a brand built for the long game: supporting people through every stage of life, not just a single diagnosis. Today, we support over 1 million members across the UK, Germany and Brazil, delivering personalised care across weight loss, menopause, hair loss and TRT (with more categories on the way).
Ready to join us and change how healthcare feels for millions of people?
