Sterile Compounding Pharmacist Manager $220K+ salary and bonus
Lead Sterile Compounding Pharmacist – Lab Manager | Chatswood | $87.50/hr + super + bonuses
We’re opening a new sterile compounding lab at Priceline Pharmacy Chatswood. It will prepare treatments for patients referred by an established, doctor-led telehealth service. The investment has been made: the equipment, raw materials and third-party testing are funded. A senior compounding technician is already on the team. What we need now is the pharmacist who will lead it.
This is a chance to shape a new sterile operation to standards with a clear pathway to grow the team and your role.

Review and finalise the SOP suite across sterile injections, nasal sprays, topicals, capsules, and oral liquids and powders

Sign off on cleanroom qualification, equipment validation and calibration
-
Confirm BUD and stability parameters and the raw material testing regime

Approve the supplier and QMS framework, including the approved supplier list, change control, COA verification and import requirements

Lead the lab to go-live, with real authority over how it’s done

Lead your technician team and hire as volume scales

Up to 10% annual performance bonus

A funded lab and a technician already in place, so you won’t be building alone
-
Clear progression into broader leadership roles as the group expands
-
A compliance-first culture: we want this done properly, and you’ll have the authority to make that happen
About you
