Are you an enthusiastic, motivated, and dynamic clinical pharmacist looking to work within a well-respected Clinical Team in a role that offers opportunities to develop prescribing clinics within chronic kidney disease and kidney transplant follow up?
Based in our dialysis units, this role is ideal for a pharmacist looking to maximise existing renal clinical knowledge and prescribing skills, whilst also expanding clinical leadership experience.

As a team, we have a strong commitment to advancing pharmacy clinical practice and embedding effective medicines optimisation systems into patient care across the whole system.
