Richard Hackett
Director of Pharmacy Service
My first role in Weldricks was as a Saturday assistant before starting at Bradford University, where I obtained a Master of Pharmacy Degree and qualified as a Pharmacist in 2005 (GPHC number 2060770).
I started my career as a Pharmacist as the manager of our Swinton branch, before moving between several branches and completing a Clinical post-graduate diploma from Keele University in 2010. After re-joining the company in 2019, I’ve held a number of field and central roles before moving into my current position in 2025. I am responsible for the safe and effective running of our Pharmacy Network, working with all different functions to make this happen.
