PHARMACEUTICAL MANUFACTURING TECHNICIAN – TOTAL PARENTERAL NUTRITION (TPN) & CHEMOTHERAPY

Do you want to work for a company where its key mission is to provide the best products and services for the patients they support, where the employees rate teamworking above all, and where you can earn up to an additional £7,000 within a year by following our structured training plan. Come and work for ITH Pharma, as these are the reasons why our employees tell us they want to work for us!

We now have a number of exciting opportunities in our production clean rooms for Pharmaceutical Compounding Operators based at our head office in North West London (NW10).

Your main duties will be:

  • Measuring, mixing and compounding products.

  • Adhering to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) at all times.

  • Adopting disinfection techniques such as spraying, cleaning and wiping down.

  • Preparing equipment and supplies ready for compounding of products in our aseptic unit.

  • Reading, understanding and following Standard Operating Procedures (SOP’s).

  • Completing documentation in line with company policies and procedures.

    Everything we do is centred around providing the highest standard of products for the patients we support by delivering critical services, normally within same day timelines. Therefore, to ensure success in the role, you must possess the following attributes:

  • Accuracy and ability to concentrate for significant lengths of time.

  • Good hand to eye co-ordination.

  • Ability to follow detailed operating procedures and understand technical processes, meaning excellent written and spoken English is required.

    Our manufacturing site operates from 6.30am to 6.30pm Monday to Friday with 6 Saturdays across the year for cleaning and extra production. You may be pleased to know we don’t work rotating shifts or regular weekend working. After you have completed your training, you may have the opportunity to move onto our 4-day working week shift pattern giving you a better work life balance and time off to do those jobs you can’t do at weekends.

    You will start your role working on our 9:00am to 5:30pm shift. Your working hours are fixed, however we do have to finish all our daily orders as we have patients waiting for our life saving medicines. This may mean some minimal overtime to finish off the day. After that, the evening is yours, no work to take home, you can relax in the knowledge you have touched many lives that day.

    We offer a very competitive starting salary of £28,889 a year and the opportunity for progression within your first year with an additional £7000 which can be earned through accreditations, with added growth potential across the organisation. Key benefits are:

  • 22 days holiday + Bank holidays.
