We have an exciting opportunity for a Senior Pharmacist to support a highly specialist service in oncology, bone marrow transplants, CAR‑T therapy and complex haematology at our CQC‑rated “Outstanding” HCA at UCH site. This role offers the chance to work closely with expert consultants at University College London Hospital within a collaborative and highly specialised oncology and haematology setting.

As a Senior Specialist Pharmacist, you’ll work across both our inpatients and outpatient areas, using your expertise to provide advice and counselling to patients.
