Publix is continually recognized as one of the best places in America to work. With the ability to open up to 50 new pharmacies per year, our promote‑from‑within culture allows for a rewarding career path into retail management, specialty pharmacy, out‑patient hospital pharmacy, corporate or centralized pharmacy operations.

• Inspire each team you work with to do the right thing, gain buy‑in, and empower the team to be accountable.
• Provide enthusiasm for all new pharmacy initiatives at your assigned location.
• Manage team performance, such as prescription promised time, by assigning tasks to ensure complex operational activities are met in a timely and efficient manner in the absence of the pharmacist‑in‑charge.
• Use best practices to make sound business decisions while covering as the pharmacist‑on‑duty.
• Be regarded as an expert on the pharmacy technology system and how it is used for both routine and complex prescription processing.
• Mentor others on Publix pharmacy best practices to maximize sales, minimize shrink while meeting customers’ needs, using programs such as auto refill and Sync Your Refills.
• Proactively advance pharmacy clinical initiatives including Medication Therapy Management (MTM) and immunizations.
• Maintain a flexible work‑week schedule in order to meet the needs of our customers.
• Assist in all other duties as assigned.

Required Qualifications

• Must not have received an unacceptable result on a company‑sponsored drug test within the last three years.

Preferred Qualifications

• Be an immunizing pharmacist meeting the requirements as established by the state (or be scheduled to become an immunizer in the next set of training classes).
• Effective communication and interpersonal skills.
• Ability to interpret and understand instructions and solve problems.
• Numerical and financial aptitude.
• Knowledge of retail merchandising and inventory control.
