CVS Health has an exciting opportunity in Wilkes-Barre, PA for a Materials Handler to be a part of our Mail Order Pharmacy team. The Materials Handler is essential to ensuring patients receive their medications in a timely manner. As part of the team, you will have an important, uniquely rewarding role putting your Materials Handler skills and experience to work in a closed-door pharmacy setting.

You will make a difference by excelling in a complex, high impact dispensing role and positively impacting the lives of others. You will work alongside a team of talented individuals in a concerted effort and under the direct supervision of Lead Technicians and Pharmacy Supervisors.

The ideal candidate will possess high levels of reliability, accuracy, professionalism, team orientation and problem‑solving skills.

You will play a crucial role in the day‑to‑day operations of the pharmacy warehouse by engaging in the receiving, storage and replenishment of products throughout the facility. Your responsibilities will include moving new shipments of pharmaceutical product to be stacked in their appropriate storage spaces, pulling product to be shipped with the appropriate carriers and inspecting products for damages. To be successful, you will utilize scanners and other hand‑held devices to maintain inventory accuracy and may operate manual lifts, reach trucks and transfer equipment to move product throughout the facility.

This role allows you to engage in an active environment while working to develop individual production skills.
