Pharmacy Innovation Lead (apotheker) (m/f/d)

Wellster is scaling across Europe on top of infrastructure most of our competitors dont have: our own telemedical clinic, our own mail-order pharmacy, and a pharmaceutical wholesale operation covering the entire European Union. Our Dutch mail-order pharmacy is the engine underneath all of it — it dispenses for our own patient brands and it fulfils, white-label, for third-party telemedicine platforms across Europe. Now we are looking for one commercially minded, BIG-registered pharmacist to leverage this set-up. As Pharmacy Innovation Lead you are our second registered pharmacist at the site and the person who decides what this pharmacy can actually do — which partnerships we can deliver, which operating models hold up under regulatory scrutiny, and what each of them really costs to run. You will also build the prescription operating model behind every new European market we open, which means the countries Wellster enters over the next two years will run on models you designed. This is a role for a pharmacist who has already stepped out of the dispensing bench and wants to build, not a commercial manager with an interest in pharmacy.

Our pharmacy sits in Bad Nieuweschans, right on the Dutch–German border in the province of Groningen.

Deine Aufgaben werden sein ...

Act as our second BIG-registered pharmacist alongside our current pharmacist — sharing pharmaceutical responsibility day to day and providing full, credible cover during absence

Build the prescription operating model for each new European market we enter as part of our internationalization: how prescriptions are received, dispensed and delivered compliantly in that country, from first feasibility assessment through to first patient served

Own the operating model, feasibility and delivery of our third-party fulfilment partnerships — what we can deliver and at what cost to serve; commercial terms are negotiated centrally, and you are the person who makes them deliverable

Set and own operating models and service-level standards across both the pharmacy and our pharmaceutical wholesale operation, so the two work as one system rather than two

Design and launch new pharmacy business and operating models — new therapy areas, new fulfilment formats, new service constructs — from regulatory feasibility through to live, running operation

Lead our strategic pharmacy and wholesale projects: automation, capacity expansion, and building out our compounding capability

Translate Dutch and EU pharmacy regulation into operational reality — what we are allowed to do, how we evidence it, how we hold that position with the regulator — and own the quality and compliance work that keeps a high-volume mail-order pharmacy audit-ready as volumes, markets and product categories grow

Deputize for our Director Pharmacy on operational decisions, and act as a second senior point of contact at the site

Work closely with our commercial brand teams, our wholesale team and our executive leadership so that supply, service levels and expansion plans hold together in practice

Du passt perfekt zu uns, wenn …

You are a BIG-registered apotheker, or you are eligible for BIG registration in the Netherlands and prepared to complete it

You have 3–8 years post-registration experience, and you have already moved at least partly out of patient-facing dispensing — a chain or online pharmacy head office, a pharmaceutical wholesaler, an insurer, or healthcare strategy consultin
