About The Position

CVS Health Pharmacy Technicians support pharmacy operations and service excellence in retail locations. They help ensure prescriptions are filled promptly, safely, and accurately, assist patients and customers, and contribute to a caring, inclusive, and safe environment. Technicians follow company standard operating procedures and pharmacy workflow practices at workstations such as production, pick-up, drive-thru, and drop-off. After starting, technicians must complete the company training program and meet applicable state registration, licensing, and certification requirements; duties may be restricted until those requirements are complete.

Technicians may perform patient-care services such as immunizations and point-of-care testing when permitted by law and supported by required training and certification.

The role requires regular and predictable attendance, including nights and weekends, and flexibility to travel to other stores in the market as business needs require.

This is a part-time position with 20 anticipated weekly hours. The typical pay range is $16.00–$24.00 per hour. Benefits may include dental and vision coverage, wellness resources, employee discounts, access to certain voluntary benefits, and other programs, depending on hours worked and eligibility.
