Our Pharmacy Dispenser rate of pay starts from £12.87 an hour; this increases to £14.08 for stores inside the M25. Additional payments may also apply depending on location.
It’s our policy to offer new colleagues joining us a minimum of 16 guaranteed hours each week, but if you’d like to work fewer hours (to a minimum of 12) we have opportunities for this too and would still love to hear from you.
The schedule reflects the periods of time in the week we’d like you to be available to work—the availability windows. We will schedule your contracted hours within these times, and you’ll have 3 weeks’ notice of exactly when your shifts will be. We are happy to support flexibility; if the times you’re available match closely but not exactly to the advertised times, we’d still love to hear from you. Read more.
Customers are at the heart of everything we do.
Discover what it’s like to work in a fast-paced environment, where colleagues focus on delivering a gold standard of service and patient care. There’s a lot more to it than dispensing medicines. Every day you’ll have the opportunity to make things better for customers in various ways, such as helping customers with new medicines, providing vaccinations, reviewing customers’ use of their medicines, and checking blood pressure or testing for blood glucose levels. It’s about supporting communities by making the best healthcare choices available and convenient for local people.
Working alongside experienced Pharmacists and managers, you will receive local management and leadership support in whichever store you are based. Our management team comes from a variety of backgrounds, so there is always a chance to learn.
We are looking for talented and driven Pharmacy professionals who can deliver the highest quality healthcare service to our customers, and in return we’ll provide a supportive team, detailed industry training and a varied working environment where no two days are the same.
Should you be successful in your application, your offer will be conditional upon you providing your bank details before your agreed start date.

We know life looks different for each of us. That’s why Tesco welcomes conversations about flexible working. Some people are at the start of their careers, some want flexibility to do the things they love, others are carers, nearing retirement, adapting to parenthood, or other life moments.
