Join our Aseptics Team - we're recruiting at all levels
There has never been a more exciting and innovative time to work in our Aseptics team, here at the Royal United Hospitals Bath. They are a dynamic and fast-paced team who are dedicated to preparing highly-specialised medicines such as chemotherapy and radiopharmaceuticals that are used to help treat patients with cancer.
It's a rewarding department to work in as you will be at the forefront of a service which supports our patients when they are at their most vulnerable - you will be helping save lives by making incredibly important treatments. We can offer you experience of meeting the patients we treat and work closely with our oncology professionals to see the impact of your work.
You will be based in our recently built pharmacy building which provides medicines for all inpatients on-site and a range of community hospitals. It is supported by an outpatient dispensary in the main entrance of the hospital. We have the latest robotic technology in our pharmacy, including a three-armed robot that can work 24/7 and be operated remotely out of hours.
It's a great facility to be based in and it is close to many staff amenities on-site, including the restaurants, cycle storage areas, outdoor swimming pool, Education Centre and Academic Library.
