This is an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic, motivated pharmacist to join our Surgical Clinical Pharmacist team. This is an ideal position for someone with a general medical background with great problem solving and communication skills, who can use their knowledge in different scenarios – could you advise alternative treatment options for a patient with temporary intestinal failure post-surgery? Could you ensure their existing medical conditions were treated?
The large clinical pharmacy team at University Hospital Southampton (UHS) NHS Foundation Trust consists of over 100 pharmacists including over 50 prescribers and 4 consultant pharmacists. 
Our Surgical Pharmacist team has a great track record of developing extended roles of practice. This includes pharmacist independent prescribing, microbiology ward rounds and working with the Inpatient Pain Team.
The team provides services to elective and emergency surgery as well as tertiary surgical services in specialist areas. UHS is a regional centre for intestinal failure and provides specialist treatment for patients across the south of England.
You will be supported by experienced senior pharmacists and given the opportunity to develop advanced level skills, including independent prescribing.
We’re looking for pharmacists with strong clinical knowledge who are ready to progress their career in clinical pharmacy at band 7. However, we will consider applications from suitable pharmacists for our band 6 to 7 progression route.
