We have an exciting opportunity for a motivated and clinically driven Pharmacist to join the Pharmacy team at The Wellington Hospital, currently rated “Good” by the CQC. This role is ideally suited to a registered pharmacist with some prior hospital experience who is eager to develop specialist expertise across a wide range of clinical areas, including Cardiology, Medical and Surgical specialities, Antimicrobial Stewardship, and Critical Care.

In this rotational role, you will help deliver a safe, high‑quality and patient‑centred pharmacy service across the hospital.

In addition, you will have opportunities to enrol onto a clinical diploma to further develop your clinical practice and expand your professional scope.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a pharmacist eager to broaden their clinical practice while working with some of the most advanced healthcare services in the private sector.
