About Epic Pharmacy

Epic Pharmacy is an independent, patient-focused pharmacy grounded in trust, autonomy, and community health. Located on the west coast of Vancouver Island, we serve a diverse rural population and partner with Indigenous communities. We’re seeking a Pharmacy Manager or Staff Pharmacist to join our care-driven, values-based team.

Role Highlights

  • Pharmacy Manager : $65–$75 / hour; Pharmacist : $60–$70 / hour (negotiation based on experience)

  • Autonomy and direct mentorship from owner
  • CE support and a full clinical scope
  • Extended health & dental, paid vacation, wellness supports, and HCSA
  • College licensing & BCPhA membership covered

Modern Systems for a Smooth Workflow

We’ve built systems that support pharmacy, not slow it down. You’ll practice in a fully paperless, tech-enabled environment using :

  • Kroll Paperless Workflow & Patient Care Module
  • Pharmasave eCare platform
  • Blist Assist for efficient compliance packaging
  • Vivid Pill Counter for accuracy and assistant efficiency
  • Our team values your time and clinical judgment—our tools are built to enhance both.

    “Epic Pharmacy is a place where pharmacists are genuinely empowered. The culture is inclusive, clinically forward, and grounded in real community care — it’s everything you’d hope for in a rural practice.”

    — Julie, Pharmacist & Former Colleague
