Job Overview

Werona Pharmacy and Supermarket is looking for a Pharmacist to support its pharmacy operations in Phase III, Kubwa, Abuja.

The position involves more than dispensing medicines. The successful candidate will review prescriptions, counsel customers and patients on medication use, monitor for potential drug interactions, maintain pharmaceutical records, and help ensure medicines are stored and handled appropriately.

This is an onsite position with an alternate-day work schedule.

About Werona Pharmacy and Supermarket

Werona Pharmacy and Supermarket is a health and retail business that combines pharmacy services with general supermarket shopping.

The business provides access to pharmaceutical products, personal care items, groceries, household essentials, and other everyday goods. Its one-stop-shop model allows customers to access healthcare-related products alongside their regular shopping needs.

For the Pharmacist role, the pharmacy function is particularly important, with responsibilities covering medication dispensing, patient counselling, stock management, medication safety, and compliance with applicable requirements.

Key Responsibilities

The Pharmacist will be responsible for supporting safe and effective pharmacy services, including:

• Dispensing prescription and over-the-counter medicines.
• Reviewing prescriptions for accuracy and clinical appropriateness.
• Checking for potential drug interactions and other medication-related concerns.
• Counselling patients and customers on the safe and appropriate use of medicines.
• Explaining relevant medication indications, precautions, and possible side effects.
• Maintaining accurate pharmaceutical and patient-related documentation.
• Managing medicine inventory and monitoring stock levels.
• Ensuring medicines are stored under appropriate conditions.
• Maintaining cold chain requirements for temperature-sensitive products.
• Coordinating with suppliers and internal teams to reduce the risk of stock shortages.
• Supporting medication safety and quality improvement activities.
• Providing professional and respectful customer service.
• Working effectively with physicians, nurses, administrative personnel, and other members of the wider healthcare team.

Qualifications and Experience

Applicants should be licensed Pharmacists with either:

• Bachelor of Pharmacy (B.Pharm), or
• Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D).

The vacancy lists two years of experience and indicates that previous experience in a similar pharmacy setting in Nigeria is preferred.

Candidates should have practical knowledge of community pharmacy operations, including prescription review, dispensing, patient counselling, and guidance on over-the-counter medicines.

Experience with pharmacy inventory and stock management is also important, particularly the proper storage of medicines and management of products requiring cold chain conditions.

Skills the Employer Is Looking For

The position requires someone who can work accurately in a busy pharmacy environment while maintaining good professional standards.

Important qualities include:

• Strong knowledge of medicines, including indications, contraindications, and side effects.
• Good prescription-review and medication-management skills.
• Strong attention to detail.
• Good communication and interpersonal skills.
• Sound problem-solving ability.
• Ability to remain accurate under pressure.
• Good teamwork and collaboration skills.
• Respectful and non-discriminatory communication with patients and customers.
• Ability to maintain accurate inventory and pharmaceutical records.

Working Schedule

The advertised working hours are:

Resumption: 7:30 AM
Closing: 9:30 PM

The position follows an alternate-day schedule, with the Pharmacist working one day and having the following day off. The vacancy states that this works out to approximately 15 working days per month.

Applicants should consider the long daily operating hours and alternate-day arrangement when assessing whether the schedule suits them.

Location

The pharmacy is located at:

Phase III, Kubwa, Abuja, Nigeria

The employer states that proximity to the location is an added advantage.

Candidates who live in or around Kubwa may therefore find the work arrangement more convenient, particularly given the early start and late closing time.

Salary and Remuneration

The detailed vacancy states that the monthly salary is:

₦270,000 per month

The listing header separately displays a salary range of ₦200,000–₦300,000 per month, but the specific remuneration section gives ₦270,000 as the monthly salary.

Who Is This Role Suited To?

This position is best suited to a licensed Pharmacist with practical community pharmacy experience who is comfortable combining patient care with the operational side of running a pharmacy.

Applicants should be prepared to handle dispensing and counselling responsibilities while also paying close attention to inventory, storage conditions, documentation, and customer service.

Because the role is based in Kubwa and operates on an alternate-day schedule, location and availability should also be considered before applying.

If you have experience with prescription dispensing, patient counselling, stock management, cold chain products, medication safety, or pharmacy inventory systems, include those details clearly.
