    Main duties of the job

    This role is one of two senior pharmacist roles in the Integrated Medicines Optimisation team, working across South East London (SEL). The Senior Pharmacists for Integrated Medicines Optimisation will work across SEL Integrated Care System (ICS) to support delivery of a defined portfolio of our SEL Transforming and Integrating Medicines Optimisation (TIMO) programme. You will be supported by the Integrated Medicines Optimisation team, place based medicines optimisation teams and a wide range of healthcare professionals and directorate teams.

    The postholder will work collaboratively with their counterpart and will lead on selected portfolio areas to support delivery of the medicines optimisation and long term conditions priorities. Whilst each Senior Pharmacist, Integrated Medicines Optimisation will have individual responsibilities in their portfolio, the postholders will work collaboratively and in a matrix management style. This will include some shared responsibilities and providing cross cover as necessary.

    About us

    The South East London Integrated Care Board (SEL ICB) brings together the health and care partners that serve our vibrant and highly diverse populations resident in the London boroughs of Bexley, Bromley, Greenwich, Lambeth, Lewisham and Greenwich - our Places.

    Our partnership brings together six local authorities, over 200 general practices (operating within 35 Primary Care Networks), Guy's and St Thomas' Hospital NHS FT, King's College Hospital NHS FT, Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust, South London and the Maudsley Mental Health FT and Oxleas FT. It also brings together Community Pharmacists, Dentists and Optometrists with delegated commissioning arrangements in place from April 2023. Importantly, the ICB seeks to be connected to the communities we serve (circa residents) and work with the widest possible range of community, voluntary and third sector groups and organisations in each borough. The reach of our NHS provider portfolios extends beyond the borders of the ICB, across London, the south of England and nationally for some services.

    You will be joining a well established Medicines Optimisation and Pharmacy system in South East London. Our approach is to work together to harness and build on our collective resources, including staff to drive change.
