Pharmacy Managers and Pharmacists manage the pharmacy operations, improve prescription sales and profits, constantly review their pharmacy’s financial information, and ensure courteous and efficient service to patients and customers. The Pharmacy Manager is the certificate holder for state licensing requirements and holds Power of Attorney for ordering and maintaining controlled substances.

Floater Pharmacists handle Pharmacist responsibilities when the primary Pharmacist is on vacation, medical leave, or during other times of absence. In many instances, the Floater Pharmacist works closely with the Pharmacy District Manager to ensure coverage and profitable operations and assists with scheduling, inventory, and overall management in one or more markets in a district. Because this position provides an opportunity to gain a broad knowledge of pharmacy operations, many of our Pharmacists are promoted from this position.

Shared Pharmacists perform the usual duties of a Pharmacist but divide their time between several pharmacy operations.

Pharmacy Interns earn valuable real-world experience at a Kmart pharmacy while extending their university based education. These pharmacy-school students handle drug utilization review, counsel and communicate with patients, and communicate with other health care professionals, as allowed by state law. With our new Educational Leave of Absence, Interns may be able to work summers at a Kmart Pharmacy while earning their pharmacy license. This enables the intern to retain the original employment date if a Pharmacist position is accepted after graduation and licensure.
