Graduate Pharmaceutical jobs

GRADUATE PHARMACEUTICAL MANUFACTURING TECHNICIAN - TOTAL PARENTERAL NUTRITION (TPN) & CHEMOTHERAPY
Start your pharmaceutical manufacturing career with ITH Pharma, where your work will help deliver vital medicines to patients. Join a supportive, team-focused environment and follow a structured training programme that can increase your salary by £7,000 within your first year.

We now have a number of exciting graduate opportunities in our production clean rooms for Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Technicians 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.
• Operating Compounding Pump.
• Working to pump complex drug infusions.

Everything we do is centered 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.

You will need a keen interest in science and at least a bachelor's degree, ideally in a science-related subject. You do not need previous pharmaceutical manufacturing experience: we provide comprehensive training to prepare you to work confidently with our friendly teams across the Chemotherapy, CIVAS and Parenteral Nutrition clean-room manufacturing units.

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 begin on a fixed 9:30 am to 6:00 pm shift. Because patients are waiting for these vital medicines, occasional minimal overtime may be needed to complete the day's orders. When your shift is finished, there is no work to take home-just the satisfaction of knowing your work has made a difference to the patients we are helping.

You will start on £30,073 a year, rising to £37,073 when you complete your structured training programme. You will also have opportunities to continue developing your career across the organisation. Benefits include:

• 22 days holiday + Bank holidays.
• Healthcare cash plan scheme.
• Pension & long service awards.
• Annual £50 company pharmacy shop allowance.
• Subsidised canteen.
• Regular company celebrations including on-site street food.
• High street discount scheme.
• Wellbeing programme for all staff including free access to our on-site company Doctor and Physiotherapist, and access to medical and eye tests.
