Trainee Pharmacist Foundation Year - July & October 2027

Are you working towards your Masters of Pharmacy ( MPharm ) degree?

We are large enough to provide you with an opportunity to develop but small enough to treat you as an individual.

Cohens Chemist is a well-loved brand name in community pharmacy. The Company is a family owned organisation which was established in 1979 and is now one of Britain's leading pharmacy chains. We pride ourselves on the special relationships we have developed with our customers in the community to understand and help meet their needs by giving a friendly, efficient, confidential and professional service.

We have fantastic opportunities available for students looking to join our teams Nationwide.

We have motivated, proactive, experienced tutors, offering excellent training in all aspects of pharmacy practice, throughout your placement.

You will also receive regular contact and guidance from our Programme Manager, who will be there to support your journey and keep you on track.

Training will be provided by a third party training provider who will cover a range of topics, all of which will benefit your learning.

You will also benefit from a combination of training events, covering audit work, calculation practice and exam revision sessions.

All aspects of the foundation standards and competencies will be covered, with emphasis on management skills, communication, and assertiveness, together with teaching you the vital clinical skills you will need to talk to and advise your patients.

We will also encourage you to build a professional relationship with GPs, nurses and other health care professionals spending time observing their day-to-day work.

We also facilitate additional activities for all our students including:

• Advanced and Enhanced services training day
• Prescription Pricing Division visit
• Opportunity to take part in a 2-week cross sector placement - allowing you to broaden your clinical GP and hospital experience
