Job Description
Main duties and responsibilities
The Role:
We are seeking an enthusiastic and forward-thinking pharmacist to join our academic team and play a key role in preparing pharmacy students for contemporary clinical practice and prescribing responsibilities. This is an exciting opportunity to bring current prescribing experience directly into the classroom, clinical skills and simulated practice environments.
You will help students develop the knowledge, skills and professional behaviours required for safe and effective prescribing. You will contribute to teaching across our MPharm programme, supporting students to build competence in clinical assessment, consultation skills, clinical reasoning, therapeutic decision-making, interpretation of patient records and investigations, shared decision-making, and safe prescribing practice. You will shape the future pharmacy workforce by bringing real-world prescribing expertise into pharmacy education and helping students develop into confident, patient-centred clinicians.
Working within a supportive and innovative team, you will deliver undergraduate teaching, facilitate clinical skills and prescribing workshops, support assessment and curriculum development, and provide academic and professional support to students.
