What we do

Pharm-Assist supplies locum pharmacists, technicians, and dispensers to healthcare providers across the UK.

We operate as a sales-led resourcing partner, actively promoting each vacancy through direct outreach to our locum network rather than relying solely on job board postings. All vacancies are handled on a best-endeavours basis, with a clear focus on securing cover wherever possible.
