Oncology Pharmacist

Build an oncology pharmacy operation, don't inherit one.

Riceland Cancer Center is opening a new medical oncology and infusion program in Beaumont, and we're hiring our first oncology pharmacist.

This person won't step into an existing workflow — they'll design it. Compounding operations, order verification standards, regimen and order set build in the EMR, formulary, inventory, and safety protocols all get established by whoever takes this role. If you've wanted ownership of a program rather than a shift, this is that seat.

You'll work directly with our medical oncologist, oncology nurse practitioner, and infusion nursing team in a small, focused outpatient center where your clinical judgment carries real weight.
