Registered Pharmacy Technician - Burnaby

Are you a Registered Pharmacy Technician looking to take on more responsibility in a high-growth, non-retail pharmacy environment? This permanent, full-time role based in Burnaby is your opportunity to join a progressive pharmacy team focused on innovation, collaboration, and excellence in patient care.

This is a great opportunity for someone who thrives in a structured yet evolving setting, enjoys optimizing workflows, and is excited by the chance to play a key role in supporting pharmacy assistants and improving processes. You’ll have the autonomy to own the day-to-day dispensary operations while working closely with a highly engaged pharmacist and growing team.

This is your chance to help shape the future of pharmacy operations in concert with the Pharmacy Manager — while working in a stable, forward-thinking environment that prioritizes both people and process. If you're looking to stretch your scope, grow alongside a purpose-driven team, and make your mark in a modern pharmacy setting, we’d love to hear from you. Apply today!

Advantages
Registered Pharmacy Technician – Full-Time, Burnaby, BC - Healthcare

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

✔ Monday to Friday schedule, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM

✔ Permanent, full-time role with competitive hourly rate of pay, depending on experience, with direct-hire employee status from day one.

✔ Comprehensive benefits from day one; Includes extended health and dental coverage, generous mental health supports, and RRSP contributions.

✔ Vacation + additional paid time off (3 weeks’ vacation and enjoy 5 additional personal days, including a flexible birthday day and year-end time off during the holiday season).

✔ Full license and insurance reimbursement

✔ Free on-site parking

✔ Training and onboarding that set you up for success - Tailored training through one-on-one mentorship and online modules, plus a tight feedback loop as you ramp up.

✔ Opportunities to grow with the pharmacy - the Burnaby site is growing rapidly — as script volume and service complexity expand, you’ll be at the forefront of operational improvement and service delivery.
