Cairns and surrounding region, enjoy the vibrant lifestyle, stunning natural scenery, and excellent work-life balance that Far North Queensland offer

Community Pharmacist – Cairns, Far North QLD
Full-Time

Visa Sponsorship (incl. DAMA options) – Relocation Assistance – Accommodation Available

Are you a passionate pharmacist looking to take the next step in your career — whether you’re newly registered or an experienced practitioner? Join our community-focused pharmacy in the Cairns region where your professional growth and wellbeing matter.

We cater to real people, not just prescriptions. You’ll work in a supportive environment that values clinical excellence, patient care and positive team culture.

Why You’ll Love Working With Us
✔ All experience levels welcome — including freshly registered pharmacists
✔ Visa Sponsorship available — including options under the Far North Queensland DAMA region
✔ Relocation assistance for the right candidates
✔ Accommodation support available if required
✔ Genuine career progression — part-time to full-time or full-time from the start
✔ Friendly, supportive team and work culture
✔ Emphasis on quality patient care and professional development

About the Role
You’ll be a key part of our pharmacy team delivering high-quality community health services:

  • Dispensing and checking prescriptions accurately
  • Providing professional advice and medication counselling
  • Supporting clinical services such as vaccinations and medication reviews
  • Building strong patient relationships
  • Working closely with technicians and support staff in a collaborative environment


Who We’re Looking For
You’ll be a great fit if you:

  • Are AHPRA-registered as a pharmacist (newly registered applicants are encouraged to apply)
  • Immunisation certificate
  • Have a passion for community pharmacy and patient-centred care
  • Are reliable, professional and ready to contribute positively
  • Communicate well with patients and colleagues
  • Enjoy working independently and as part of a team

No prior community pharmacy experience is required — we support growth and learning.

Visa Sponsorship — Including DAMA Pathways
For candidates needing visa support, we can offer employer sponsorship, including through the Far North Queensland DAMA (Designated Area Migration Agreement).
A DAMA is a specialised regional migration program between the Australian Government and regional authorities that enables employers in designated regions (like Cairns & Far North QLD) to sponsor skilled overseas workers under more flexible conditions than the standard skilled migration system. It may also provide:
✅ Access to a broader range of occupations
✅ Concessions on English language, age, salary and experience requirements
✅ Multiple visa pathways including Skills in Demand (SID) visas, Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (SESR) visas, and potential pathways to permanent residency after meeting regional visa conditions

  • Competitive hourly rate or salary reflective of experience
  • Part-time with pathway to full-time, or full-time on appointment
  • Relocation assistance for the right candidate
  • Accommodation support available
  • A culture that supports new graduates and career growth
  • Ongoing training and professional development opportunities
  • A chance to make a real impact in the community

Location
Cairns and surrounding region, enjoy the vibrant lifestyle, stunning natural scenery, and excellent work-life balance that Far North Queensland offers.
