Job Description
Cardinal Health, Inc., headquartered in Dublin, Ohio, is a global, integrated healthcare services and products company that operates across nearly 60 countries. As a prominent leader in the healthcare industry, Cardinal Health provides customized solutions to hospitals, health systems, pharmacies, ambulatory surgery centers, clinical laboratories, and physician offices worldwide. The company prides itself on offering clinically-proven medical products and pharmaceuticals combined with cost-effective solutions designed to enhance supply chain efficiency from hospital to home. With nearly 100 years of experience and a workforce exceeding 40,000 employees, Cardinal Health ranks among the top 15 companies on the Fortune 500 list, highlighting its significance and impact in the healthcare sector.
Within the Cardinal Health family, the Nuclear Pharmacy Services division holds a specialized focus on the radiopharmaceutical industry, setting the standard for service and innovation for nearly fifty years. This division operates a network of over 130 pharmacies that fill 65 percent of radiopharmaceutical unit doses nationwide, illustrating its extensive reach and leadership in the sector. The Nuclear Pharmacy Driver role is crucial in ensuring the safe, timely, and efficient delivery of radiopharmaceutical products to customer accounts. This role requires a reliable candidate to operate company vehicles, manage packaging, testing, and shipping of sensitive medical materials, and collaborate closely with teams to maintain high standards of safety, regulatory compliance, and customer satisfaction.
The typical work schedule for this position involves 40 hours per week, usually from Sunday through Thursday, working night shifts from 8:00 p.m. to 4:00 a.m., with flexibility required to accommodate different days, hours, or schedules based on business needs. The driver will be responsible for preparing and making deliveries along assigned routes, properly packaging radiopharmaceutical medications, performing testing and loading/unloading duties according to strict safety protocols and Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations. The role also includes the use of technology such as handheld tablets for scanning orders and route navigation, contributing to streamlined and accurate delivery processes.
Candidates must demonstrate the ability to maintain vehicles in proper working condition, perform minor roadside repairs when necessary, and contribute to general facility cleaning and organizational upkeep. This role necessitates a strong understanding of technical systems supporting product delivery, including technology-assisted packaging systems and route optimization tools. Employees must also actively participate in required training programs covering areas such as biohazard waste handling, radiation safety, contamination testing, HIPAA compliance, ergonomic safety, and safe driving procedures.
The position demands physical capabilities, including the ability to lift heavy containers up to 75 pounds, comfort with driving in various weather conditions both day and night, and sufficient stamina to sit, stand, and remain mobile for prolonged periods. Strong communication skills and a commitment to excellent customer service are also essential. The company emphasizes inclusion and diversity, encouraging candidates from all backgrounds, including those who are back-to-work, people with disabilities, without a college degree, and veterans, to apply. Cardinal Health is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer, fostering a supportive and diverse workplace environment.
The compensation for the Nuclear Pharmacy Driver position is $17.50 per hour, supplemented by a $1,000 new hire sign-on bonus. Cardinal Health provides a comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, and vision coverage, paid time off, a health savings account (HSA), a 401k savings plan, access to wages before payday with myFlexPay, flexible spending accounts (FSAs), disability coverage, work-life resources, paid parental leave, and healthy lifestyle programs. Interested candidates are encouraged to apply promptly as the anticipated application window closes on April 25, 2026.
