At Slade Health, we offer a unique opportunity to step into the world of pharmaceutical manufacturing - a fast-paced, highly regulated environment where your skills directly contribute to the delivery of life-saving treatments. Whether you're just starting out or ready for a new direction, you’ll be supported by experienced mentors, and gain experience in advanced sterile compounding practices.
At Icon, we’re growing, and what we do matters to more people every day. Every role here holds a strong contribution to the care provided. When you choose a career with Icon, you help change lives for the better.
What You’ll Do
As a Quality Pharmacist, you’ll play an active role in the preparation and compounding of oncology treatments. You’ll work closely with the Operations team and report to the Quality Pharmacist Supervisor, helping ensure everything meets the highest standards. This is a hands-on role where your work truly matters and there’s plenty of opportunity to learn and grow.
Key Responsibilities
- Releasing all finished products, including cancer medications, antibiotics, and TPN
- Ensure all products are compounded appropriately according to product specifications and documentation to obtain the required quality.
- Ensure all quality management systems and procedures are adhered to
- Participate in preparation of new Quality Documents and revision/update of existing documents.

Site Information
The Slade Health site at Mt. Kuring-Gai is tucked away in a quiet industrial area on the northern fringe of Sydney. It’s a peaceful spot, away from the hustle and bustle, but that does mean you’ll likely need your own transport to get there. The good news? There’s free onsite parking, and because you’ll be travelling in the opposite direction to peak hour traffic, your commute is usually quicker and far less stressful than heading into the city.
What You’ll Bring
You’ll bring a strong attention to detail, a commitment to quality, and a proactive mindset. Whether you're an experienced compounding Pharmacist, newly registered or transitioning from another pharmacy setting, your ability to adapt, learn, and work collaboratively will be key to your success.
While compounding and Oncology experience is highly valued, it is not a deal-breaker. We only require that you are a AHPRA registered Pharmacist to qualify for this role.
Essential Requirements
- Permanent Australian working rights.
- Current general registration as a Pharmacist through AHPRA.
- Ability to commit to full-time employment on weekdays.
