We have an exciting opportunity for a Pharmacy Technician at HMP Winchester to join our team. HMP Winchester is a Category B Local remand prison located in Central Winchester, accommodating approximately 670 male prisoners.
Although the site is close to Winchester city centre, there is onsite (free!) parking for all staff and it is a short walk from Winchester train station.
Due to HMP Winchester holding remand prisoners and to support the daily regime, we do require staff to work on a rota basis, and you can be asked to work nights, bank holidays, and weekends. However, if you're looking for flexibility, we can discuss this at the interview.
