Role Summary
Flame Health Pharmacy is recruiting for a Pharmacy Operations Manager to support a progressive independent pharmacy group across the Cambridge and central Cambridgeshire area.

The Opportunity
This is a hands‑on, mobile role offering variety, responsibility, and genuine progression potential.
The group is service‑led, with a strong focus on NHS Pharmacy First, private healthcare services, patient access, and high‑quality community pharmacy care. You will work closely with pharmacy teams and senior stakeholders to help each site run safely, efficiently, and consistently.
The role would suit someone who enjoys problem‑solving, supporting people, improving standards, and helping an independent pharmacy business continue to develop.
