Job Description

Company Overview

Strive Pharmacy is a personalized compounding pharmacy built on a simple conviction: medicine should fit the patient, not the other way around. We started Strive because we believed the pharmaceutical industry was overdue for a more human approach—one that prioritizes individualized care, clinical nuance, and genuine partnership with patients and providers.

Compounding gives us the tools to do that. Every formulation we prepare is built to the specific needs of a specific person, and every interaction we have is guided by that same commitment to personalized care.

We're growing, and we're looking for people who share that conviction. If you're ready to be part of a pharmacy that takes the work seriously and the people even more seriously, we'd like to meet you.

Mission

Strive exists to disrupt an industry long overdue for a more personal approach to care. We put the human element at the center of everything: every formulation, every patient interaction, every provider partnership. We're not just a compounding pharmacy. We're a team on a mission to change what personalized healthcare looks and feels like.

Position Type: Full-Time

Schedule

Monday - Friday, between the hours of 7:00am - 6:00pm (will be 5 - 8 hour shifts).

Position Overview

The Clinical Review Pharmacist Supervisor leads and oversees the clinical review pharmacist team, ensuring consistent, accurate, first-pass verification of prescriptions across the site while directly supervising staff performance, workflow, and training.

This role owns trend analysis and quality outcomes for order entry, translating findings into process improvements, technician education, and staffing decisions.
