Clinical Pharmacist (Specialist)

This is an exciting opportunity to join our team of band 7 pharmacists, rotating every 9 months through surgery, cardiovascular & thoracic (CV&T), orthopaedic and neurology departments.

You'll be based in those areas full-time for each rotation and will have the opportunity to learn from local experts in those specialties. Clinical pharmacists in these departments are critical for patient safety, patient flow and medicines management.

You will apply your clinical knowledge on a daily basis, and support ward based teams, as well as the wider pharmacy department, in delivering excellent patient care. In each of these areas you will contribute to specialist ward rounds, including microbiology and the inpatient pain service.

UHS has one of the largest pharmacy departments in the country with over 300 staff and are nationally recognised for their innovation. The clinical pharmacy team is made up of pharmacists, pharmacy technicians and pharmacy support workers.

Most of our pharmacists are qualified independent pharmacist prescribers and we are proud to host several consultant pharmacists and leading national experts, many of whom have worked in UHS for decades. We also offer several development and research opportunities.

Southampton is an attractive place to live and work situated on the south coast, with an international airport and direct trains to London.

We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalising your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.
