Pharmacy Assistant Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I recently worked in a busy community pharmacy where I helped customers navigate prescriptions and over‑the‑counter care. In a typical shift I handled up to 120 transactions, checked prescriptions for accuracy, and kept stock levels stable to reduce delay for customers. I understand the importance of clear, calm advice when people are unsure about medicines or storage, and I’ve learned to balance speed with careful attention to safety. My strengths align with what [Company Name] needs in a Pharmacy Assistant. I’m comfortable processing prescriptions, advising on non‑prescription products, and handling cash with care. I’ve kept medicines stored properly and ensured shelves are tidy and well merchandised. I also pitch services and loyalty programs in a straightforward way, without pressure, and I’ve supported stock management and stocktakes to keep the shop efficient. A recent moment stands out from my time at [Previous Company]. A customer came in with a new prescription and asked about possible interactions with their existing meds. I looked up the pharmacist notes, confirmed the dosage, and explained storage and use in plain terms. The patient left with confidence, a clearer plan, and a follow‑up reminder for their next refill. Significantly improved first‑contact confidence for that customer and reduced follow‑ups by the next day. I’d welcome a chat about how I can contribute at [Company Name]. I’m available for a discussion this week and can start soon if that suits. Kind regards, [Your Name]
