"Working for QE Facilities has provided me with exciting challenges and opportunities that I never expected. When I first started working for QEF I joined as a domestic and now I am a Senior Homecare Dispenser, who is responsible for overseeing a small team. My people skills were recognised early on and I was put through my Pharmacy Counter Assistant training. Once I had become confident in that role I progressed to a 2 year course to become a dispenser and I have never looked back. My career in pharmacy has went from strength to strength, I’m so happy overseeing the Homecare department. I am so thankful that they saw skills in me that I never saw in myself and knew what role would best suit me and let me thrive within the business. 

I really enjoyed being part of the domestic team but I can say that now I truly love my role within pharmacy."

Stacey Alder - Senior Homecare Dispenser

‘I am an Electrical Apprentice for QE Facilities based at the QE in Gateshead. Im enrolled on 4 year apprenticeship which involves 3 days at college and 2 days hands on work. I am really enjoying my course as every day is different. I get to work with lots of good people and enjoy different hands on work. Having the opportunity to earn whilst I learn is also a bonus’
