Band 8a Specialist Pharmacist - Clinical Pharmacist Educator
University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust View all jobs
Posted 5 day(s) ago
Reference: 2444676
Job summary
Love the wards but get your biggest buzz from watching someone else's clinical reasoning click into place? This role lets you do both - properly.
We're recruiting a Specialist Clinical Pharmacist - Clinical Practice Educator to join our team at Good Hope Hospital. For 60% of your week, you'll be a lead clinical pharmacist: running the clinical service on your wards, line-managing a team and acting as the site lead for clinical practice education.
The other 40% is dedicated to education. You'll be the Good Hope lead for pharmacy placements with Aston University, shaping how MPharm students experience hospital practice and inspiring the next generation of hospital pharmacists. From undergraduates to trainee and early careers pharmacists, you'll have a real say in how pharmacists are trained here.
Good Hope is easy to reach from central Birmingham by public transport. If you're a confident clinician who wants education to be a defined part of your job, not something squeezed in around it, we'd love to hear from you.
Main duties of the job
Your week splits 60/40: clinical leadership on the wards, and planning and overseeing undergraduate placements and projects on site.
As lead pharmacist, you'll run day-to-day clinical pharmacy services on your wards - screening prescriptions, reconciling medicines, interpreting therapeutic drug levels and, once qualified, prescribing. You'll represent pharmacy to your specialty, drive service developments and line-manage pharmacists, technicians, assistants and trainees.
As Clinical Practice Educator, you'll lead practice-based placements at UHB for Aston University pharmacy students, contribute to placement-linked assessment, help design placement learning with the university and supervise final-year projects. You'll also be a line manager and educational supervisor for early careers pharmacists and mentor to rotational pharmacists.
We're looking for an experienced hospital pharmacist with a postgraduate clinical qualification (or equivalent experience), confidence teaching others and genuine enthusiasm for education.
What you'll get:
*A defined education role with real influence, not a token add-on
*Leadership and line management experience in a supportive clinical team
*Protected learning time built into your working week
*Support toward non-medical prescribing (NMP), if not already qualified
*Health, wellbeing and family benefits, including NHS discounts at retailers, restaurants and leisure facilities
About us
University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust strives to have an inclusive culture where everyone feels like they belong, can thrive, knows that they add value and feels valued. We do this by developing compassionate and culturally competent leaders, being values driven in all that we do and by creating a welcoming and inclusive workplace that thrives on the diversity of our people. As such we want to attract and recruit talented individuals from all backgrounds, and for each of you to feel supported for the diversity you bring, to achieve your full potential. For those staff with a disability, including physical disability, long term health condition, mental health or neurodiverse condition, this also means being committed to making reasonable adjustments needed for you to carry out your role.

Job summary
This is a pivotal role for a Senior Clinical Pharmacist who wants to make a measurable difference to medicines safety, governance and patient care across out-of-hours and dental services. You will lead a focused review of medicines management arrangements, assessing how medicines are prescribed, supplied, stored, administered, reconciled, disposed of and escalated across the services. Working closely with the Lead Pharmacist and clinical, operational and governance colleagues, you will identify compliance gaps, patient-safety risks and opportunities to strengthen practice. Your specialist insight will directly inform improvements to clinical governance, medicines optimisation and assurance arrangements.
This is an opportunity to use your pharmacy expertise at a strategic level: reviewing high-risk medicines, controlled drugs, antimicrobial stewardship and emergency medicines; analysing incidents and audit findings; and translating evidence into clear, prioritised recommendations. You will produce a robust current-state assessment, risk and gap analysis, improvement plan and final report, helping shape safer, more consistent and more effective medicines management for patients
Main duties of the job
- Map and review end-to-end medicines management processes across out-of-hours and dental services, including prescribing, supply, storage, administration, reconciliation, disposal and escalation.
- Assess arrangements against legislation, regulatory and professional standards, licence conditions, organisational policies and governance requirements, identifying compliance gaps and good practice.
- Evaluate the effectiveness of existing controls and procedures, identifying patient-safety risks, unwarranted variation, duplication and opportunities to improve consistency and efficiency.
- Review the safe management of high-risk medicines, controlled drugs, emergency medicines and cold-chain products, escalating immediate safety or significant compliance concerns through appropriate governance routes.
- Assess prescribing quality, antimicrobial stewardship, medicines optimisation and access to pharmacy advice, identifying opportunities to strengthen safe and effective practice.
- Review incidents, near misses, complaints, audits, policies, documentation and training arrangements to identify systemic risks, recurring themes and areas requiring improvement.
- Engage with the Lead Pharmacist, clinicians, operational teams and partners; produce a documented risk and gap analysis, prioritised recommendations, improvement plan, audit criteria and a final report for relevant governance forums.
