Job description

Job responsibilities

You will work as an autonomous practitioner, responsible for the provision of medical services to the practice population, delivering an excellent standard of clinical care. Furthermore, the post-holder will adhere to the GMC standards for good medical practice, contributing to the effective management of the practice, leading by example, maintaining a positive, collaborative working relationship with the multidisciplinary team.

Generic Responsibilities:

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

A good attitude and positive action towards ED&I creates an environment where all individuals are able to achieve their full potential. Creating such an environment is important for three reasons: it improves operational effectiveness, it is morally the right thing to do and it is required by law.

Patients and their families have the right to be treated fairly and be routinely involved in decisions about their treatment and care. They can expect to be treated with dignity and respect and will not be discriminated against on any grounds including age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation. Patients have a responsibility to treat other patients and our staff with dignity and respect.

Staff has the right to be treated fairly in recruitment and career progression. Staff can expect to work in an environment where diversity is valued and equality of opportunity is promoted. Staff will not be discriminated against on any grounds including age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation. Staff has a responsibility to ensure that they treat our patients and their colleagues with dignity and respect.

It is essential that, if the legal requirements are to be met and the trust of our patients is to be retained, all staff protect patient information and provide a confidential service.

Quality and Continuous Improvement (CI)

To preserve and improve the quality of our output, all personnel are required to think not only of what they do, but how they achieve it. By continually re-examining our processes, we will be able to develop and improve the overall effectiveness of the way we work. The responsibility for this rests with everyone working within the practice to look for opportunities to improve quality and share good practice.

This practice continually strives to improve work processes which deliver healthcare with improved results across all areas of our service provision. We promote a culture of continuous improvement where everyone counts and staff are permitted to make suggestions and contributions to improve our service delivery and enhance patient care.

Learning and Development

The effective use of training and development is fundamental to ensuring that all staff are equipped with the appropriate skills, knowledge, attitude and competences to perform their role. All staff will be required to partake and complete mandatory training as directed by the training coordinator, as well as participating in the practice training programme.

The Vale Medical Practice is seeking an enthusiastic and motivated clinical pharmacist to join our friendly and supportive GP team, across our two sites, Wootton Vale Surgery and Shortstown Surgery. The role is offered on a full-time basis, with flexible working considered.

You will play a key role in medicines optimisation, long-term condition management, and improving prescribing quality, while working closely with GPs, nurses, trainees, and the wider multidisciplinary team. This is an excellent opportunity for a pharmacist who is passionate about patient care, enjoys clinical variety, and is keen to contribute to service development, teaching, and innovation within primary care.

Main duties of the job

Key responsibilities include

• Undertake structured medication reviews (SMRs), particularly for patients with polypharmacy, frailty, or complex long-term conditions
• Support medication reconciliation following hospital discharge
• Provide expert medicines advice to clinicians and patients
• Contribute to long-term condition management within your scope of competence
• Support repeat prescribing processes, medication queries, and prescribing safety checks
• Promote evidence-based prescribing and contribute to audit and quality improvement work
• Implement local and national prescribing priorities (e.g. ICB initiatives, QOF, IIF)
• Review high-risk medicines and support appropriate monitoring
• Deliver patient-facing clinics (e.g. hypertension reviews, inhaler technique, medicines counselling), depending on experience
• Work collaboratively within the MDT, including supporting trainees and junior colleagues
• Opportunity to be involved in practice-based projects, including research and innovation initiatives

About us

The Vale Medical Practice is a forwardthinking, communityfocused GP practice serving the villages of Marston Vale and surrounding areas. We operate across two wellestablished sites and pride ourselves on delivering high-quality, patient-centred care through collaboration, innovation, and continual improvement.

We are a training practice, recently research-ready, and actively investing in the development of our multidisciplinary team. As part of an exciting phase of organisational change, we are moving away from traditional, siloed ways of working towards a competency-based, whole-patient model of care. This role is ideal for someone who embraces change, enjoys shaping services, and wants to help redefine how primary care is delivered.

What we offer:

• A supportive, innovative, and welcoming GP team
• Opportunities for training, CPD, and career progression
• Competitive salary and NHS pension scheme
• Flexible working options, including opportunities within Enhanced Access services
• A positive team culture that genuinely values innovation, learning, and patient-centred care
