We are seeking a dynamic and experienced pharmacist to provide strategic and clinical leadership within one of the largest and most progressive critical care services on the South Coast.
This senior leadership role will shape the future direction of critical care pharmacy services across UHS and the wider system. You will co-lead a highly skilled pharmacy team and work closely with senior medical, nursing and Trust leaders to improve medicines optimisation, prescribing quality and patient safety.

We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalizing your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial.

At UHS we’re committed to providing a flexible working environment where possible. Whether you are balancing family, study, or your wellbeing with your career, we want to support you so you can help our patients.
At UHS, we proudly champion individuality, recognizing that outstanding care is only possible with a diverse, inclusive team.
