Job Description

We are a new start-up pharmacy in Sherman, Texas, looking for a licensed pharmacist to join our team during our early launch phase. This is a great opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a growing pharmacy operation.

About the Role

This position starts as a temporary 2-month assignment at our Sherman location. As the pharmacy grows and relocates, the position will transition to a new permanent location within Collin County. We are a new operation, so patient volume is currently light — making this a solid fit for someone who values a lower-stress environment while still staying active in practice.

Requirements

  • Active Texas Pharmacist License
  • Comfortable working in a start-up, build-as-you-go environment
  • Reliable and self-motivated with minimal supervision needed
  • Experience with Liberty software is a plus
  • What to Expect
  • Initial 2-month commitment in Sherman, TX
  • Relocation of position to Collin County area thereafter
  • Low volume currently with room to grow alongside the pharmacy
  • Opportunity to grow with the business long term

To apply, send your resume and active Texas pharmacist license number. We look forward to hearing from qualified candidates.

Key Responsibilities

The pharmacist will manage pharmacy operations during the early launch phase of a new start-up pharmacy. Responsibilities include providing pharmaceutical care and adapting to the business's growth as it transitions to a permanent location.
