Senior Pharmacy Technician, SACT Distribution Unit (SDU) Band 5 - Sutton based.

An exciting and unique opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic, dynamic and self-motivated professional to join our pharmacy team at the Sutton site of the Royal Marsden.

You will be part of a team consisting of Pharmacists, Technicians and Assistants, who are always striving for excellence in all aspects of our work. We are working collaboratively as part of a Multi-Disciplinary Team to ensure we always deliver outstanding care to our patients. 

It is an exciting time to join the Royal Marsden Hospital Pharmacy Department. Our service is built around providing a high-quality service to our patients and staff at the Trust.

With the opening of the new OCC, we are diversifying our service for the delivery of parenteral SACT products to the hospital through our new SACT Distribution Unit (SDU). The unit will allow us to maximise the efficiency of procurement and delivery of externally sourced parenteral SACT products to the Royal Marsden Hospital sites. The SDU will work closely and collaboratively with the Hospital’s Pharmacy Aspetic unit to co-ordinate delivery of treatments that are delivered from both units. 

The hospital introduced the EPIC digital health record system in March 2023, and we are looking to use the full capabilities of this system to support the efficient delivery of parenteral SACT products through the SDU.
