Hospital of University of Pennsylvania
Mid Level
Embark on a dynamic Travel Pharmacy Technician journey in Pennsylvania, beginning February 16, 2026. In this specialty role, your meticulous precision, patient-centered focus, and collaborative spirit will directly impact medication safety, accuracy, and efficiency across a range of healthcare settings. You’ll support pharmacists, manage dispensing workflows, and help ensure that every prescription is prepared with the highest standards of quality. This opportunity isn’t just a job—it’s a platform to amplify your clinical skills, broaden your scope of practice, and grow professionally while delivering compassionate care to diverse communities. Every shift is a chance to refine processes, gain hands-on experience with different teams, and contribute to safer, more effective patient outcomes. In this position, you’ll bring order to complex pharmacy operations and play a pivotal role in protecting patient well-being through precise dispensing and diligent stewardship of medications.

Pennsylvania is a state of contrasts and beauty, and you’ll experience portions of it that inspire both heart and mind. In Philadelphia, you’ll walk the same streets as history, feel the pulse of a global city with world-class dining and culture, and work alongside leading healthcare institutions. Venture beyond the city to enjoy the Pocono Mountains’ scenic trails, relaxing getaways, and outdoor adventures, or explore the Brandywine Valley’s rolling landscapes and rich gardens. Whether you’re drawn to the urban energy of a major medical network or the charm of Pennsylvania’s smaller communities, this assignment offers a memorable backdrop for your professional journey.

Location Benefits: Working in Philadelphia places you at the confluence of top-tier healthcare networks, academic medical centers, and diverse patient populations, delivering exposure that sharpens clinical judgment and operational expertise. The broader travel program also offers opportunities to work in various locations across the United States, broadening your experience with different pharmacy workflows, software systems, and interprofessional collaboration. You’ll enjoy access to robust professional communities, continuing education opportunities, and the chance to network with physicians, nurses, and pharmacists who share your commitment to excellence. In addition, the role provides realistic, predictable scheduling with guaranteed hours, enabling you to plan personal time and pursue professional development outside of work. Expect comprehensive support that respects your boundaries and values your well-being, including housing assistance and travel logistics that ease transitions between assignments.

Role Specifics and Benefits: As a Pharmacy Technician on travel assignments, you’ll perform essential duties that keep the pharmacy running smoothly while supporting patient safety and accuracy. Key responsibilities include dispensing medications under supervision, validating orders through barcode systems, preparing prescriptions for dispensing, and assisting pharmacists with medication reconciliation, labeling, and documentation. You’ll participate in sterile compounding where applicable, manage inventory and controlled substances with strict compliance, and help maintain medication storage, expiration tracking, and usage reports. Your role will also involve coordinating with nursing staff and internal teams to clarify orders, resolve discrepancies, and optimize workflow efficiency. This position emphasizes professional growth, with opportunities to expand your skill set through cross-training in inpatient and outpatient settings, sterile compounding, clinical informatics, and medication safety initiatives. Benefits are designed to support you fully: a competitive weekly pay range of $789 to $842, with guaranteed 40 hours per week and the potential for extension on successful assignments. A bonus is available to recognize your contributions, along with housing assistance to reduce relocation concerns. We encourage ongoing engagement by offering extension opportunities for continued work with trusted teams. You’ll have 24/7 support while traveling with the company, ensuring you’re never navigating challenges alone and that help is always readily available when you need it.
