Locum Pharmacist (Band 6/7)
JOB DESCRIPTION
Are you a GPhC-registered Pharmacist looking to kick-start or elevate your NHS hospital career? We have a standout locum role for you in Sussex, perfect whether you're experienced or just starting out!

Duration: Minimum 6-month contract
Schedule: Monday to Friday, 8:30am - 5:00pm (1-hour lunch)
Start Date: ASAP, flexible May/June start
End Date: Ongoing
Rate of Pay: £23 - £30 per hour + NHS pension option
Why This Role Stands Out
This is more than a standard locum post. It offers you:
* Hands-on NHS experience in a busy hospital dispensary
* Development of checking skills in a supportive, fast-paced team
* Participation in a respected hospital service with excellent work-life balance
* Long-term contract with flexibility
Open to all GPhC-registered Pharmacists, whether you're fresh out of foundation training or an experienced community pharmacist transitioning into hospital work.
What You'll Be Doing
* Dispensing and accuracy-checking medication for inpatient and outpatient services
* Providing safe, efficient pharmaceutical care within NHS protocols
* Communicating with clinical teams and supporting patient pathways
* Maintaining detailed records and adhering to GPhC standards
* Learning from a skilled team to enhance your clinical exposure
Requirements
GPhC registration is the only requirement! Enthusiasm and reliability are valued even without hospital experience.
Why Sussex?
Enjoy coastal living, green countryside, and easy commutes from London and the South East—ideal for locums seeking a refreshing change of scenery without sacrificing earnings.
