The team at a leading Bedford pharmacy is now looking for a Pharmacy Technician to join them in delivering high-quality health and wellbeing services to the local community.

In addition to prescriptions, the team readily offers a broad range of NHS and private services including Pharmacy First, vaccinations, emergency contraception and more.
