We are looking for enthusiastic Pharmacists to join our modern purpose-built facilities at ESNEFT where we have posts available based at the Colchester or the Ipswich site. There will be the opportunity to work across both in order to widen your breath of experience.

Our clinical team is extensive with ward based Pharmacy teams working across a broad range of clinical specialties in which you will have an opportunity to rotate.

Our friendly pharmacy team are dedicated to nurturing, mentoring and developing our staff to reach their full potential and you will be assigned a mentor buddy to assist with this.

We provide professional development opportunities including educational events, tutorials and workshops. We support opportunities to study for a Postgraduate clinical diploma and a non-medical prescribing qualification.

We are committed to providing a patient centred approach to medicines management through providing evidence based choice of medicines with a goal of improving outcomes, reducing wastage of medicines and improving medicines safety. To do this you will undertake daily clinical ward visits to specialist areas. You will also provide patient counselling to improve adherence to treatment and ensure patients derive the intended benefits and avoiding incurring harms. To ensure your patients receive the best care, you will be involved in incident reporting as part of clinical governance.

As part of your on-going development you will take part in the out-of-hours and 7 day pharmacy service where you will further develop your clinical knowledge, organisation and decision making capabilities.
