Description

Nottingham University Hospitals is in one of the UK's largest acute teaching hospital Trusts and has a national and international reputation for many of its specialist services and expertise.

These include Ophthalmology, Max Fax & ENT which this post will be integrated into.

The successful post holder will become an integral part of the MDT within these specialities in helping with the management of the medications used within the conditions.

The post holder will also provide leadership to the surgical pharmacy team at the Queens Medical Centre helping support the junior members of this team.

As a senior member of the pharmacist team there will be the opportunity to help support and mentor the junior members of the team.

You will be supported by the divisional lead pharmacist for surgery, as well as being able to call upon the support of the large pharmacy department at NUH.

With over 17,000 staff, we are one of the biggest employers in the city with a central role in supporting the health and wellbeing of our local population.

We play a leading role in research, education and innovation.

We are big believers in diversity and welcome new ideas to help develop our team in order to deliver world class healthcare to the vast patient populations we serve.

With endless personal development opportunities available, at NUH we will endeavour to turn your job into a career

The post will be predominately based at the Queens Medical Centre, but there will be the potential need to travel to the Nottingham City Hospital Campus and potentially to other trusts in the region as required.

The role will be mainly Monday to Friday 9am- 5pm, but these hours are negotiable. You will also be required to participate in a rostered weekend and bank holiday rota. In addition to this there is a requirement to support the on-call pharmacists through the senior pharmacist back-up rota.

The pharmacy department at NUH is forward thinking and constantly implementing innovative ways of working to deliver the best possible patient care.

We continue to extend the ideal model of delivering medicines optimisation and pharmaceutical care where pharmacists are fully integrated into the medical teams, supported by a team of medicines management technicians and assistants.
