Our Compounding team in Thetford is currently recruiting for a Production Technician to join a new, purpose built department.

You will assist with all day-to-day tasks of preparation, manufacturing and inspection of compounding medicine. The Production Technician will provide support for all aspects of cleanroom production, including aseptic compounding, equipment utilisation, inventory control, environmental monitoring to ensure compliance with the Manufacturing Licence and Quality System requirements.
