Jackie Morse, Meijer

For Jackie Morse, the future of pharmacy extends well beyond dispensing medications. It is about making healthcare more accessible, convenient and connected while strengthening pharmacists’ relationships with the communities they serve.

As group vice president of pharmacy and health at Meijer, Morse leads the retailer’s enterprise pharmacy business and health strategy. With 22 years at Meijer, she has focused on expanding the role pharmacies play in customers’ broader health and wellness journeys.

“The health of a community is built one person, one patient and one relationship at a time,” Morse says. “My role is to create the conditions that allow our teams to make that impact every day.”

Her commitment to developing pharmacy professionals has also shaped her career. Morse spent eight years in a shared faculty role, developing pharmacy service programs and mentoring student pharmacists. That experience deepened her passion for inspiring the next generation of pharmacists to make an impact in their communities.

Today, that philosophy extends across Meijer’s pharmacy and health operations. Morse and her team have strengthened the pharmacy business and expanded access to services, including virtual care, wellness events, inclusive pharmacy services and new digital experiences.

She is particularly proud of the team’s ability to innovate while delivering strong customer advocacy, engagement and market-share growth.“I strive to lead in a way that makes healthcare more accessible, more human and more meaningful for every family we touch.”
