Contribute to pharmacy education

When you join the Australian Pharmacy Council (APC), you're a part of advancing healthcare and pharmacy education for all Australians.

We strongly encourage people of all abilities, gender identities, and cultural backgrounds to apply, particularly people of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander heritage, and those who may experience diversity or disability related barriers in securing employment.

Our ‘Pharmily’ extends beyond our permanent workforce. We also engage professionals to support our goals, including through contribution of your knowledge to our Board or committees, and helping our working and reference groups drill down into best practice to advance our objectives.
