Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (LUHFT) is embarking on a once‑in‑a‑generation digital transformation that will fundamentally enhance how we deliver patient care. Our ambitious Electronic Patient Record (EPR) programme represents a major step forward in improving digital capability, enabling staff to work more efficiently and productively while delivering the highest standards of patient experience, safety and clinical effectiveness.

This is an exceptional opportunity to play a key strategic role in shaping the future of digital medicines across a large, multi‑site acute Trust.
Working as part of a dynamic multidisciplinary digital pharmacy team, including pharmacists, technicians, digital specialists and wider clinical colleagues, you will champion innovation, lead clinical safety and governance in digital medicines, and ensure that our EPR delivers meaningful improvements for both staff and patients.
If you are committed to advancing the role of digital in transforming medicines management and supporting our mission to provide outstanding services, we would be delighted to hear from you.
