Looking for flexibility without compromising on clinical practice?

Spire Norwich Hospital is seeking a motivated and patient-focused Clinical Pharmacist to join our friendly pharmacy team on a Bank basis. This is an excellent opportunity for a pharmacist looking for flexible working arrangements while remaining clinically active in a modern, supportive hospital environment.

Why Join Spire Norwich?
As a Clinical Pharmacist, you'll be an integral part of the multidisciplinary team, working closely with consultants, nurses, and healthcare professionals to ensure patients receive safe, effective, and personalised medicines management throughout their hospital journey.

Unlike traditional pharmacy roles, you'll spend most of your time on the wards, interacting directly with patients and influencing clinical decision-making, rather than working primarily in dispensary services.

• Provide expert medicines advice and support to consultants, nurses, and wider clinical teams.
• Support patients with discharge medicines, side effect counselling, and medication adherence.
• Promote the safe, appropriate, and cost-effective use of medicines.
• Identify opportunities to improve processes, enhance patient safety, and drive service development.
• Build strong collaborative relationships with colleagues across multiple specialties.
• Contribute to a patient-centred culture focused on exceptional care and outcomes.

Who we're looking for:

• Degree in Pharmacy (or equivalent qualification at the time of registration).
• Current registration with the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC).
• Experience applying clinical reasoning skills across a range of patient presentations and clinical scenarios.
• Previous experience working as a pharmacist within either a hospital or community setting.
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills.
• Broad pharmaceutical knowledge supported by sound clinical practice.

Benefits:
We offer employed colleagues a competitive salary as well as a comprehensive benefits package which includes but is not limited to:

• Bank colleagues are paid weekly
• Access to Spire Healthcare pension
• Access to Blue Light Card discounts
• Free uniform
• Free DBS
• Full induction, including mandatory training updates
