Philadelphia, PA
Contracted
Hospital of University of Pennsylvania
Mid Level
Embark on a dynamic Travel Pharmacy Tech career in the Keystone State, with a focal point in Philadelphia and the strong possibility to practice across diverse healthcare sites nationwide. Beginning 01/05/2026, this contract-to-permanent style opportunity places you on a guaranteed 40-hour schedule each week, delivering steady, reliable income while you expand your expertise in the pharmacy tech specialty. Expect competitive weekly pay in the range of $813 to $848, reflecting location, shift, and the breadth of responsibilities. This assignment is designed not just to fill a gap, but to elevate your clinical competencies, broaden your professional network, and empower you to impact patient care wherever your journey takes you. You’ll be part of a supportive travel team that understands the nuances of working in bustling urban centers and tranquil community pharmacies alike, driven by a mission to deliver safe, efficient, and compassionate pharmaceutical service.
Philadelphia offers a compelling launchpad for pharmacy professionals. The city’s rich medical ecosystem includes renowned teaching hospitals, integrated health networks, and community pharmacies that serve diverse populations. You’ll experience a vibrant urban environment brimming with opportunities for collaboration with pharmacists, physicians, and other healthcare professionals. The chance to rotate through different locations across the United States means you’ll gain exposure to varied pharmacy operations—from high-volume hospital satellite units to ambulatory care settings and specialty pharmacies—each contributing to a well-rounded skill set. Beyond the job, you’ll enjoy access to Pennsylvania’s scenic and culturally rich backdrop, from historic neighborhoods and world-class museums to outdoor escapes when time allows. The flexibility to work in multiple sites sharpens adaptability, enhances problem-solving, and elevates patient communication—critical competencies for any traveling health professional.
In this role, you’ll be at the forefront of pharmacy operations in collaboration with licensed pharmacists and healthcare teams. Your day-to-day responsibilities will include accurate prescription verification, compounding support, dispensing assistance, medication reconciliation, inventory management, and adherence to safety protocols and regulatory standards. You’ll help ensure proper storage, labeling, and labeling accuracy, assist in managed care workflows, and participate in quality improvement initiatives designed to streamline processes and reduce delays. You may assist with sterile compounding or non-sterile formulations as required by site and training, always prioritizing patient safety and data integrity. The position is a powerful platform for professional growth: you’ll develop advanced competencies in dose calculations, sterile technique, and therapeutic education, while broadening your understanding of formulary compliance, drug interactions, and pharmacovigilance. With a traveling assignment, you’ll encounter diverse patient populations, seasonal workloads, and evolving workflows that sharpen organizational skills, prioritization, and communication under pressure. The role also opens pathways to leadership opportunities, cross-training in related pharmacy services, and potential advancement within the company’s clinical and operational tracks. To support you in succeeding, the company offers a comprehensive benefits package that includes a signing bonus where applicable, robust housing assistance, and structured extension opportunities that align with performance and site needs.
The company’s commitment to you goes beyond the paycheck. You’ll join an organization that values empowerment and continuous professional development. Expect ongoing support from a dedicated travel services team, available 24/7 to address scheduling, housing logistics, site onboarding, and any clinical or operational questions that arise on the road. This travel program is designed to minimize disruption to your professional life while maximizing exposure to varied clinical settings, ensuring you feel confident, prepared, and supported at every assignment. You’ll receive access to ongoing compliance training, mentorship from seasoned pharmacists, and opportunities to network with peers across the country. This is a place where your contributions are recognized, your growth is cultivated, and your work-life balance is respected as you navigate different communities and healthcare landscapes.
Pennsylvania’s allure doesn’t end with professional opportunities. The state offers instantly engaging experiences for those moments when you’re off duty: stroll the historic streets of Philadelphia, savor diverse culinary scenes, and explore outdoor retreats in the Pocono Mountains or the Delaware Water Gap. In your downtime, you can discover world-class gardens, museums, and theaters that reflect the region’s rich heritage. Even short excursions can refresh your perspective and fuel renewed focus for the next assignment.
