Who we’re looking for: Ahpra registered Pharmacists looking to transition into a pharmaceutical production role.
Location: Slade Health Mount Kuring-gai, NSW.
The Opportunity: Looking to take your pharmacy career in a different direction? Our Slade Health Mount Kuring-Gai facility is growing, and we're seeking a registered Pharmacist to join our Quality team. No pharmaceutical manufacturing experience is required - whether you're newly registered, working in community pharmacy, or looking to explore a different area of the profession, we'll provide the training and support you need to succeed. Working in a highly regulated environment, you'll play an important role in ensuring the safety, quality, and integrity of medicines supplied to hospitals and patients across Australia. The experience gained in this role can open doors to a variety of career pathways within pharmaceutical manufacturing, quality, operations, and leadership.
What You’ll Do: Rather than dispensing medications directly to patients, Quality Pharmacists are responsible for reviewing, verifying and releasing compounded medicines, ensuring every product meets stringent quality, safety and regulatory requirements before it reaches hospitals and patients. Working closely with Operations and reporting to the Quality Releasing Supervisor, you'll support quality assurance activities across the facility and help ensure products consistently meet the highest standards of safety, quality and compliance.
- Release finished products, including oncology medications, antibiotics, and TPN.
- Ensure products are compounded in accordance with specifications and documentation.
- Maintain adherence to quality management systems and procedures.
- Contribute to the development and revision of quality documents.
- Review and manage product non-conformances, escalating where required.
- Ensure incidents, deviations, and complaints are accurately recorded in the QMS.
Shift hours may change to 05:00pm – 01:00am in the future.
Site information: The Slade Health site at Mt. Kuring-Gai is tucked away in a quiet industrial area on the northern fringe of Sydney. It’s a peaceful spot, away from the hustle and bustle, but that does mean you’ll need your own transport to get there. The good news? There’s free onsite parking, and because you’ll be travelling in the opposite direction to peak hour traffic, your commute is usually quicker and far less stressful than heading into the city.
What You’ll Bring: You’ll bring a strong attention to detail, a commitment to quality, and a proactive mindset. Whether you're an experienced compounding Pharmacist, newly registered or transitioning from another pharmacy setting, your ability to adapt, learn, and work collaboratively will be key to your success. While compounding and oncology experience is highly regarded, we welcome applications from all Ahpra-registered Pharmacists.
Essential requirements:

- Current Ahpra Pharmacist general registration, with no practice restrictions.
