Job Description

University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust is delighted to offer a fantastic opportunity to work with us.



Please see below for the detailed job description of the role.



An exciting and novel opportunity has arisen for a proactive and passionate individual to join the Medicines Management team at UHS as part of the Critical Care team.



This role will give the successful candidate the chance to build on existing Medicines Management skills, while specialising in an evolving discipline in Critical Care and Theatres under the support and guidance of the specialist Critical Care pharmacists. The position will provide an individual to make this new role their own, giving you the chance to set the direction of the service we are providing.



The Medicines Management team are committed to providing an enjoyable, rewarding work environment while supporting staff with their ongoing professional development in order to reach their potential as outstanding Pharmacy Technicians. We will enable staff to have the freedom and responsibility to work under their own intuition with the trust of their management team to provide an outstanding Medicines Management service.



University Hospital Southampton is one of England's largest acute teaching Trusts, offering a wide range of learning and development opportunities to support your career aspirations.



Located on the south coast with an international airport and direct rail links to London, Southampton offers an ideal setting to live and work, with the New Forest, South Downs and Jurassic Coast.



We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalizing your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.



At UHS we're committed to providing a flexible working environment where possible. Whether you are balancing family, study, or your wellbeing with your career, we want to support you so you can help our patients.



At UHS, we proudly champion individuality, recognizing that outstanding care is only possible with a diverse, inclusive team. We're committed to creating an anti-racist, anti-discriminatory environment where everyone feels valued, safe, and empowered to make a meaningful impact in our communities. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences to join us in building a healthcare community where everyone can belong, thrive, and contribute.
