Pay and hours
Our Pharmacy Dispenser rate of pay starts from £12.87 per hour; this increases to £14.08 for stores inside the M25. Additional payments may also apply depending on location.
It is 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 table shows 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 for our colleagues; therefore if the times you’re available to work match closely but not exactly to the times we are advertising, we’d still love to hear from you.
