The Specialist Pharmacy Service (SPS) is a nationally recognised service providing essential advice and guidance to the NHS in relation to all aspects of medicines use. We operate as a single integrated team spanning all 7 regions of NHS England & Improvement. We are hosted by a number of NHS Trusts across the country and are a close-knit group of highly experienced pharmacy professionals and support staff.

Within this team there are 5 functions, one of which is Pharmacy Procurement. Due to a reorganisation across SPS there is now an additional post sitting within the Procurement Hub. The post-holder will support all aspects of the work currently undertaken by the Regional Pharmacy Procurement Specialists.

Applications are invited from those with a pharmacy background but also from those with no experience in this area. Project management skills and data handling ability will be the main requirements of the successful applicant and a pharmacy background is not essential.

The post is advertised as 37.5 hours and this is the overall requirement but applications from applicants interested in part time hours and a potential job-share with another successful candidate will also be very welcome.
