About the Role
We're hiring a Pharmacist Manager to lead daily operations in our Long-Term Care (LTC) pharmacy with a strong focus on Data/Order Entry & Verification and Production/Fulfillment performance.
This is an operations leadership role for a pharmacist who can run a department with clear expectations, tight workflow control, and measurable results—accuracy, speed, compliance, and on-time completion.
If you're the type of leader who likes owning outcomes, building strong teams, and continuously improving processes, we want to meet you.

- Identify bottlenecks and adjust staffing/assignments in real time to keep production moving without sacrificing accuracy
Lead a High-Performance Team

- Coach, train, and develop staff with clear feedback and performance follow-up
- Conduct shift huddles, assign station responsibilities, and maintain strong communication across the team
Data Excellence (Order Entry / Verification)
- Ensure accurate order entry, clinical verification, patient/facility profile maintenance, and documentation
- Confirm correct directions, quantities, cycle schedules, packaging instructions, allergies/interactions, and clarifications
- Resolve missing information quickly through effective facility/provider communication
Production Excellence (Fulfillment / Dispensing)
- Oversee dispensing, packaging workflows, cart fills, unit-dose/blister processes (as applicable), and final checks
- Maintain safe and compliant handling of controlled substances (security, counts, reconciliation, documentation)

Quality, Safety & Compliance
- Ensure compliance with all applicable regulations (PA Board of Pharmacy, DEA, HIPAA, and company SOPs)
- Maintain strong check systems to reduce errors and rework
- Investigate errors/near misses, implement corrective actions, and improve SOPs/training to prevent recurrence
- Stay inspection-ready and support audits with accurate documentation and controlled substance oversight
Continuous Improvement + Metrics
- Track and improve department performance using operational metrics such as:
- turnaround time / queue aging
- accuracy / error rate / near misses
- rework rate
- on-time completion of cycle fills and STATs
- Build/update SOPs, training checklists, and workflow standards
- Recommend process improvements and help implement new tools/automation when needed
