About Us

"Since working for Pharmaseekers I have been in regular employment as a full time locum pharmacist, they have helped me to register with the large multiple and independent pharmacy businesses. Without this help I imagine it would have taken me a long time to make these connections as a lone pharmacist wanting to branch out into full time community pharmacy locuming. I have always found the Pharmaseekers team to be helpful, friendly and courteous. Their I.T., text message and online diary service to manage bookings is user friendly and easily operated from a mobile phone (which is great for me as I use mobile applications for everything), and has very practical attributes such as being able to register shifts that you have been paid for. The team at Pharmaseekers are also experienced with the C.P.P.E website and have guided me to worthwhile training packages so I can become accredited to deliver extra services within community pharmacy, such as Emergency Contraception on a Patient Group Direction, this is of great benefit as certain services are essential for pharmacies and the more services the individual pharmacist can provide the greater the attraction for employers. In summary I would recommend Pharmaseekers to any Pharmacist wanting to work in a locum role within community pharmacy"

"The service is great and can’t fault the agency service the team provides Communication is fast, and the team is always willing to liaise any information between coordinators and the pharmacist."

"I have been with Pharmaseekers for over 6 years now and can honestly not recommend them enough. They are responsive, communicative and very professional. They have made a number of improvements to their site over the past few years and each time it gets better and better.  A very easy agency to work with, one whom I would recommend to anyone without hesitation."

"Great agency to work with. The staff are all very friendly and reply quickly to queries or messages. They try their best to get the bookings / shifts for the clients. The booking portal and website are great. Very easy to use and innovative. The allow you to search and make offers which is a great function. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is a locum. Keep up the great work! "

"Outstanding , professional , friendly and very helpful management & staff. I am delighted to associate with Pharmaseekers for over a decade now."

"Pharmaseekers have been amazing with finding me shifts to work, they are lovely people. They're also very polite and will always go that extra mile for you. "

"Really love working with Pharmaseekers and the staff are so helpful and respond to queries quickly. They have always been really supportive and lovely."

"Pharmaseekers have been great to have as my locum agency . The girls have all supported me not only through booking shifts but through a few personal  difficult times I have had this last year . Thank you ladies , I really appreciate your dedication , help and support ."

"I am registered with couple of Locum companies but prefer Pharmaseekers over others. The reason behind this is the support you get from Pharmaseekers Team members. Shabana, Katie, Amy and Rebecca are just one call/email away. Pharmaseekers let you negotiate unlike few other locum agencies. Staff are super friendly as well. Any payment issues, team will chase it up for you. Best Locum agency so far without any doubt."

"I have been with Pharmaseekers for over a year now and I have found the online booking system extremely effective . The reminders are great and the ability to mark jobs as paid on the online diary makes life a lot easier. Anytime I have emailed pharmaseekers or spoken to a member of staff the response has been swift . I would strongly recommend pharmaseekers."

"Pharmaseekers are great! In fact definitely the best! I have been using them for years. I love their online diary and booking system. It’s definitely the best in the game. It has so many useful tools and the response times are brilliant which is exactly what you need as a Locum. Moreover, something which makes them stand out is that they are easily accessible and super responsive  - something which I find is not common with other agencies and can be very frustrating! And of course the team are always helpful and friendly and nothing is too much. Thank you team Pharmaseekers! :) "

"Pharmaseekers is my go to agency for locum pharmacy work by far, it is the best I have worked with, the online diary is very easy to navigate and keeps all your shift information, i.e dates, pharmacies, times, rates etc stored for you,  the staff are always helpful, friendly and supportive and attentive if there are any quiries, they are always available if I need to get in touch with them which is always useful doing locum work, would recommend without a doubt, happy locuming   👍"

"I have been a Locum with pharmaseekers for nearly 14 years. I have always found the team at pharmaseekers so helpful and friendly, I have never had to worry about where I am going or finding work suitable. The online diary systems is fantastic to help keep me organised with reminders of where I will be the next day, as well as now the new search facility so I can search vacancies which best suit and make offers to work. The team have always been available for any queries and they support me by letting me know what extra training is required to meet the needs of the businesses we work for. I recommend pharmaseekers to any other Locum pharmacist as they really are the best and I cannot thank them enough for their support over the years."

"Pharmaseekers have been great to have as my locum agency . The girls have all supported me not only through booking shifts but through a few personal  difficult times I have had this last year . Thank you ladies , I really appreciate your dedication , help and support ."

"Pharmaseekers have been able to facilitate professionally my communications with the community pharmacies I work in partnership with. They always feed me back promptly and provide ad hoc support as and when needed. I am very thankful to them."

"I have used Pharmaseekers to book shifts for me since I started working as a Locum in February 2020. The Agency was instrumental in ensuring I had the appropriate credentials in place to ensure I was best qualified for the work on offer. Since then they have always found me work when available , been supportive and never applying pressure to persuade me to work when I had alternative plans . Any payment queries have been dealt with promptly and any issues I may have had have been dealt with in a timely fashion. I only use Pharmaseekers Agency and they are super friendly. "

"Everything about the company is exceptional, from the staff who are extremely helpful and professional to their booking platform which so easy to navigate through. Many thanks to all for making my transition from branch manager to locum pharmacist so effortless."

"Pharmaseekers are such a supportive agency, they are very loyal and dedicated to finding work for their locums. Everyone who works there are brilliant at what they do. Keep up the great work! "!

"The team of Pharmaseekers is the most professional and knowledgeable group of people with which I have the privilege to  work with. I have been working with Pharmaseekers for nearly 6 years now and I truly believe that they are the best pharmacy recruitment agency in the pharmacy industry in UK.  Nothing is too much trouble for them and they will always go the extra mile to protect and look after their clients interests. It is inspirational to see how Pharmaseekers has taken leading position in the locum pharmacist industry in recent years and they truly deliver exceptional service with highly effective communication"

"The website is really good with the new upgrades in the CVS and the rejected rates.  A few of the many positive aspects about locuming with Pharmaseekers are: Quick replies to enquiries, constantly upgrading the website and experience of locuming, helping the locum in difficult circumstances (cancellations, problems with a shift, etc).    As a suggestion when a rate gets rejected, if we had the company counteroffer ( as to what they are open to accept) reply at the same time would save time in emailing back and forth"

"I have been using Pharmaseekers for several years now , and would recommend them whole heartedly . They are the only agency I use that actually see me as a person , not just a locum . To the point that when I was unwell last year , they even sent me flowers !   Their online platform is easy to use , and they advocate for the locum as well as the pharmacy .  A great agency all round !"

"I have found Pharmaseekers to be a very professional agency. The staff are lovely and very helpful with any queries. Never had any issues. 5 stars."

"My experience with Pharmaseekers has been a resoundingly good one. They've been consistent with getting me jobs and always willing to go above and beyond to make sure I get the best I can from any jobs I work. At first I was obviously worried about whether or not there would be many locum dispenser jobs but Pharmaseekers have been surprisingly good at getting me work, better than expected and I'm glad I'm signed on with them."

"I have worked with Pharmaseekers on 2 separate occasions, from 2002 to 2005 and after a 10 year break in Ireland from April 2016 although I was in contact with them from Aug 2014.  When I looked at returning I was a little daunted by all the form filling and the level of details they looked for before I could sign up but after a few emails all my concerns were waylaid. Not only did they explain how their system meant their clients trusted you even as a new locum helping you get those all important starting jobs but they offered me pages and pages of advice and links to help me get re-registered in the UK and UK locum ready. The online diary and website are incredibly useful and flexible and even allow for split shifts. They are very easy to use but any problems you have are rapidly resolved after an email or phone call to them. If you keep your details and preferences up to date they are fantastic about matching you to desired roles and will often send emails about possible ideas outside your usual comfort zone but that they are certain you will be intrigued by.  I would wholeheartedly recommend them to locums and pharmacies alike, their professionalism and duty of care to both is exemplary in the field they really feel like they are looking after your needs as well as the pharmacies side. I have already used their "recommend a pharmacist" button on the website several times after discussing them with pharmacists looking to start being a locum."

"Since I signed up to locum work, Pharmaseekers have taken the worry, anxiety and apprehension off my shoulders. Their ability to match your availability to work available makes a big difference compared to other agencies. They literally do all the ground work, all you have to do is turn up at the designated pharmacy branch for work. They will always endeavour to do the best to suit your needs and when they say: ‘We will take good care of you’, they mean what they say You guys are the best!"

"When I first started locuming, I was suffering from a lack of confidence in my skills and abilities, but the support I got from Rebecca and her team really helped me realise that I’m a good pharmacist I find using the website to check my bookings and to update my availability really simple and straightforward. It saves me having to be “one of those locums” always on the phone! The reminders that the team send about bookings, and the help they give with keeping up to date on services are really invaluable I would definitely recommend Pharmaseekers to any pharmacist who is considering becoming a locum. They help you set boundaries on what you can handle, which helps you always to get good feedback on the services you provide to pharmacies."

"I am very happy with the service given. They are friendly and approachable , quickly sort things out, keep an eye on your requirements for the bookings, very professional and respected by the pharmacists they deal with"
