Pharmacy Technician and Technical Officers

What if your Pharmacy expertise was the reason a new drug reached patients faster?

Fortrea's Clinical Research Unit in Leeds is a purpose‑built 65,000 ft² Phase I facility where life‑saving medicines begin their journey.

Here, a modern clinic, laboratory, and cGMP research pharmacy sit under one roof, just 7 minutes from the train station.

We are growing our Clinical Research Pharmacy team and hiring Pharmacy Technicians and Pharmacy Technical Officers to support first-in-human and early clinical trials.

• Manufacturing sterile and non-sterile drug products for Phase I human clinical trials.
• Working under cGMP and GCP standards in a research setting, you'll be hands-on in drug production, helping ensure investigational medicines are safely prepared and ready for dosing just steps away from the participants.
• Performing thorough maintenance and control of Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP) / Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) Pharmacy Inventory Management records, ensuring the continued supply of any pharmacy stock items.
• Supporting reception, use, supply, storage, packaging and disposition of API and IMP

This is a permanent, full‑time role, working 37 hours per week, Monday to Friday, with very occasional weekend work (typically under 4 hours, compensated with flexi time or overtime).

You will work in a Phase I clinical research pharmacy, preparing investigational medicines just steps away from the participants receiving them.

Every day, your work supports one critical question:
"Will this new medicine be safe?"

• Have experience working in cGMP, GCP and/or GLP settings

If you are not yet GPhC registered but have relevant experience, we will support your registration

Much of the data you generate will end up in a drug's label! That's why your work will be so important: it's the foundation of everything that comes after.

When the drug you worked with gets approved, you know you´ll touch many patient´s lives around the world.
