Job description

At Tesco, people are at the heart of everything we do, and this couldn’t be truer for our pharmacy team.

As a Duty Pharmacy Manager, you’ll have the opportunity to make a real impact on others’ lives. Whether you’re supporting pharmacists, providing top-notch services to customers, or fostering community spirit, your work will touch the lives of hundreds of people every day.

We want to help you be at your best, whatever life brings. That's why we’ll offer you uninterrupted "me time" away from the pharmacy to relax, refuel, and recharge.

Aside from these healthy breaks, you’ll also have plenty of career development opportunities with leadership training plans from industry experts, so there’s every chance to progress. And if you’ve got ideas for how we can improve, we’ll make sure you’re given the chance to be heard.

It all adds up to a role where you can do good, and feel good, while developing your career. Let’s make every day a little better.

• You’ll supply prescriptions, deliver a range of NHS and Private services, and provide healthcare advice to customers.
• You’ll play an active role in our charities support program, giving advice to people in the community at risk of or living with cancer, heart disease, and diabetes.
• You’ll support the Pharmacy Manager to lead, train, and develop colleagues.
• You’ll support the Pharmacy Manager in building relationships with Primary Care Networks and GPs’ surgeries.
• You’ll ensure accurate payment claims for NHS-covered items.

• You’ll have a Pharmacy Degree.
• You’ll be passionate about leading and empowering a team.
• You’ll be a member of the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) and willing to join the Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme – we’ll help you with this when we offer you the role.
• You’ll complete a DBS check (organised by us) before employment.

Our Duty Pharmacy Managers are supported by wider store teams, such as security, stock replenishment, range management, and administration, to ensure a smooth and consistent experience for our customers and patients, whilst maintaining safety for everyone.

Tesco Pharmacies offers colleagues a high level of flexibility and control over their work rotas. This enables routine overlap periods with other pharmacists on duty, so ideas about patient care and colleague development can be discussed and worked on together.

We understand that life looks different for each of us. That’s why at Tesco, we always welcome conversations about flexible working. Whether you’re starting your career, looking for more freedom to pursue personal interests, or navigating life-changing moments like caring responsibilities or retirement, we’re here to support you. Talk to us during your application about how we can accommodate your needs.

Everyone’s welcome

Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) at Tesco means that whoever you are and whatever your background, we want you to feel represented and able to be yourself at work. In short, we’re a place where Everyone’s Welcome.
