We are seeking an exceptional leader with a proven track record in motivating, inspiring, and developing teams, and driving the continuous improvement of Pharmacy services. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience in delivering high-quality Pharmacy services and the ability to represent The ICP and the Trust at all levels. You should have a clear vision for the future of Pharmacy services across all our sites and understand how this integrates within our Surrey Heartlands ICS and primary care partners.

This is an exciting time for our Pharmacy department as we are advancing with a new modular build Aseptics unit, which will require significant leadership to install, implement, and deliver aseptic medications. Additionally, the organisation is committed to delivering a large programme of work related to ward configuration, with Pharmacy playing an integral role in its success. Furthermore, changes to qualifications for pharmacists and pharmacy technicians will need to be embedded within the department.

Over the past five years, the Trust has made significant investments in the Pharmacy department, including the development of 7-day Pharmacy services, refurbishment of the dispensary and stores, and the installation of a new dispensing robot.
