Job description

Staff Pharmacist - Trade the Commute for the Lake

Full-Time | The Okanagan, British Columbia | Relocation Opportunity

Vancouver pharmacists: what if your next career move came with a lake view?

We're a busy, well-established community pharmacy in the heart of the Okanagan, looking for a full-time Staff Pharmacist ready to trade Lower Mainland traffic and rent for sunshine, space, and a better pace of life. Same professional challenge, with more life outside of work.

The Offer:

• $70/hour
• Up to $20,000 signing bonus
• 2-3 weeks paid vacation
• 4-5 days per week: full-time hours with room to breathe

The Pharmacy

• 300-500 Rx/day: a high-volume store where your clinical skills stay sharp
• Full assistant and technician support, so you can focus on patients, not the backlog
• A collaborative team that values clinical services: injections, medication reviews, minor ailment and contraception prescribing, and patient counselling
• Stable, established patient base and strong community reputation

Benefits & Perks

• Comprehensive extended health, dental, and vision coverage
• Life and disability insurance
• Retirement savings plan with employer matching
• Employee share purchase program
• Paid CPBC licensing fees and professional liability insurance
• Continuing education support and paid training for expanded scope (injections, prescribing)
• Employee discount on in-store merchandise
• Paid sick days and an Employee & Family Assistance Program
• Clear paths to Pharmacy Manager and leadership roles for those who want them

Why the Okanagan?

• Your money goes further. Housing costs are well below Metro Vancouver, so owning a home with a yard is a realistic goal, not a fantasy.
• Summer, done right. Hot, dry summers and some of the warmest lake water in Canada. Boating, paddleboarding, and beach days after your shift.
• World-class winters. Big White, SilverStar, and Apex are all within easy driving distance.
• Wine country at your doorstep. Over 100 wineries, plus orchards, farmers’ markets, and a growing food scene.
• No more two-hour commutes. Most of the valley is a short drive from home to work.
• Still connected. Kelowna International Airport has frequent, quick flights to Vancouver, so visiting family and friends is easy.
• Room for families. Great schools, safe communities, UBC Okanagan and Okanagan College nearby, and a lifestyle built around being outdoors.

What We’re Looking For

• Registered (or eligible for registration) with the College of Pharmacists of British Columbia
• Authorized to administer injections (or willing to certify; we'll support you)
• Strong community pharmacy experience, ideally in a high-volume setting
• Excellent communication skills and a patient-first approach
• A positive attitude and a love of the outdoors (optional, but you'll pick it up fast)
