Reference: 2322110
Job summary
The Pharmacy Department within The Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has undergone significant expansion and transformation over the past 18 months and this development continues with the creation of two new posts designed to lead and deliver the student placements at the Royal Victoria Infirmary for the year 3 undergraduate students from Newcastle University School of Pharmacy.
We are looking for an enthusiastic and ambitious pharmacist with experience of working in a hospital pharmacy to join our clinical education and training team. The posts will be managed by our new lead Pharmacist for Education and Training. The Trust has hosted undergraduate placements of pharmacy students since the School of Pharmacy opened at Newcastle University. The placements have been set up and run by our fantastic clinical technician team, who will continue to run the year 1 placements.
- Interview Date Wednesday 23 September 2026
- 37 Hours 30 Minutes/Week
- You will be redirected to Trac to apply for the vacancy. Please expand the job details section and read all of the information before applying for the vacancy.
NO AGENCIES PLEASE
Main duties of the job
With the integration of independent prescribing into the pharmacy degree; it is necessary to redesign the year 3 placements so that the undergraduate students are exposed to active pharmacist decision making and prescribing in a patient setting and be taught good consultation and counselling skills.
The pharmacy department has a close working relationship with the School of Pharmacy; and the post holder will be encouraged to work closely with the team at the university; assisting with tasks such as OSCE assessments. This would be an ideal role for an individual who is enthusiastic about education and training, with a keen interest in research. The design and implementation of our current placements have been written up and published in educational journals; and we are keen that this legacy is continued. The postholder will be given the opportunity to assist with input into dissertation and MSc projects.
We recognize that ongoing development of the post holders' clinical skills is important and so the post holders will be aligned to a clinical specialty for their ward based work when not supervising the students.
About us
As a flexible working friendly organisation, we want to be sure that you can work in a way that is best for us and for our patients, and for you. Speak to us about how we might be able to accommodate a flexible working arrangement. If it works for the service, we will do our best to make it work for you.

- Royal Victoria Infirmary (RVI)
- Freeman Hospital
- Newcastle Dental Hospital
- Cramlington Manor Walks
- Urgent treatment centres
- Newcastle Fertility Centre
- Northern Centre for Cancer Care, North Cumbria
- Northern Genetics Service
These include a range of flagship services which deliver cutting-edge care (supported by state-of-the-art diagnostic services in both radiology and pathology) and are a catalyst for innovation to support pioneering clinical practice in the NHS.
We also have offices at Regent Point in Gosforth and community sites.
