J677408 Hastings Hawke's Bay NZD110K - NZD160K / Year
Apply Save Pharmacist, Hastings, New Zealand
Leadership & Ownership Pathway, Coastal Lifestyle, Exceptional Work-Life Balance
We are partnering with a well-established and growing community pharmacy group in New Zealand to recruit a Pharmacist for a modern, community-focused pharmacy in Hastings, Hawke's Bay.
This opportunity is ideal for pharmacists seeking long-term career progression, ownership potential, and a genuine lifestyle upgrade in one of New Zealand's most desirable regions.
Why Hastings & Hawke's Bay?
Hastings sits at the heart of Hawke's Bay, a region known for sunshine, space, and quality living.
1. Warm, dry climate with high sunshine hours
2. Affordable housing compared to major NZ cities
3. Short commute times and relaxed pace of life
4. Excellent schools and family-friendly communities
5. Close to beaches, vineyards, cycling trails, and outdoor recreation
6. Easy access to Napier and regional flights
7. For pharmacists relocating from the UK and Ireland, Hastings offers lower living costs, safer communities, and more time outside of work, without sacrificing professional opportunity.
The Role
You'll work in a busy, well-supported community pharmacy delivering free prescriptions and a broad range of essential clinical services, including:
8. Vaccinations
9. Emergency contraception
10. UTI consultations
11. Front-line primary healthcare services
The pharmacy is supported by dispensing automation, experienced technicians, and multiple pharmacists, enabling you to focus on high-quality patient care in a collaborative environment.
Career Progression & Ownership Opportunities
This is a role with a clear future.
Structured pathways are available into:
12. Pharmacist in Charge (PIC) roles
13. Senior clinical or regional leadership positions
14. Managing Partner/Co-Owner opportunities with equity
For pharmacists interested in ownership, dedicated financial guidance and banking support are provided to help eligible pharmacists transition into pharmacy partnership, offering long-term security and professional fulfilment.
Registration, Relocation & Support
International pharmacists are fully supported throughout the relocation and registration process:
15. Completion of the New Zealand Pharmacy Council clinical exam
16. Supervised practice period on arrival (typically 4-8 weeks, often quicker for experienced candidates)
17. Supervised pay rate: NZD $45 per hour
18. Upon full APC registration, pay increases, strong performers may start above NZD $ per hour
19. NZD $10,000 relocation allowance
20. Key professional costs covered, including APC registration fees and insurance reimbursements
21. Community pharmacists remain on New Zealand's Green List, supporting more streamlined residency and visa pathways.
A Note on Salary Comparisons
We encourage candidates not to directly convert NZD salaries to GBP.
The true value of this role lies in lifestyle, affordability, healthcare access, safety, and ownership opportunities, creating a well-rounded long-term proposition.
Who This Role Is Ideal For
22. UK, Irish, and international pharmacists considering relocation
23. NZ-registered pharmacists seeking leadership or ownership
24. Pharmacists wanting meaningful community impact alongside career growth
