Bring your skills — and build your confidence
This role is ideal for a pharmacist who is looking to grow their clinical experience within a primary care setting. Curiosity, a willingness to learn and a patient-focused mindset are just as important as your existing knowledge.

You’ll also be approachable, organised and able to communicate clearly with both patients and colleagues. Someone who is developing their clinical judgement, can manage their workload effectively and is committed to improving outcomes for patients.
You’ll likely bring:
• A relevant pharmacy qualification, current GPhC registration and eligibility to work in the UK
• Confidence providing expert health advice and delivering advanced and enhanced pharmacy services
• Experience or awareness of common acute and long-term conditions likely to be seen in general practice
• Prior experience in general practice and experience using SystmOne would be desirable
• An understanding of pharmacy governance and how to apply this appropriately in the workplace
• The ability to engage with Patient Participation Groups and involve them in the development of the role and practice services
• A professional and approachable manner, with the ability to build and maintain dependable working relationships
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to deliver high-quality face-to-face interactions
• Enthusiasm and drive to champion your own learning and development
• A commitment to helping create a continuous learning culture within your team
• A flexible approach to ways of working, with a full driving licence and access to a vehicle for business use
• Please note, this role is subject to DBS clearance
