A fantastic opportunity has emerged for a passionate, highly motivated, and dynamic pharmacist to join the pharmacy clinical trials team at the Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust.
This is an exciting time to join the Royal Marsden Hospital Clinical Trials Department. Our service is built around providing a high-quality service to our patients and staff of the Trust.
About the Role
The Royal Marsden is a world-leading cancer centre with two hospitals: one in Chelsea, London, and another in Sutton, Surrey. We also have a satellite Medical Day Care Unit located on the grounds of Kingston Hospital, Surrey.
This position will be based in Sutton but will require working at our Chelsea site when necessary, to ensure consistent coverage and maintain the quality and speed of service during absences and annual leave.
Responsibilities
Applicants should have previous experience in clinical trials, and a background in oncology or haemato-oncology would be advantageous.
You will be part of a team consisting of Pharmacists, Technicians, and Assistants, who are always striving for excellence in all aspects of our work. We are working collaboratively as part of a Multi-Disciplinary Team to ensure we always deliver outstanding care to our patients.
Our team continues to support the research strategy of "taking personalized cancer treatment to the next level," with approximately over 400 active IMP studies and increasingly complex new clinical trials across all specialties, including gene therapies and cellular therapies studies.
