Locum Pharmacist (Band 6/7)
JOB DESCRIPTION
Are you a GPhC-registered Pharmacist looking to kick-start or elevate your NHS hospital career? We’ve got a standout locum role for you in Sussex – and it’s perfect whether you’re experienced or just getting started!
Job Title: Pharmacist (Band 6)
Location: Sussex
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 + chance to opt into the NHS pension
Contact: Alfie Rowett / 02034754858 / arowett@hg-ahp.com
Why This Role Stands Out:
This is more than just a standard locum post. It’s your chance to:
✅ Gain hands-on NHS experience in a busy hospital dispensary
✅ Develop your checking skills and work in a supportive, fast-paced team
✅ Be part of a respected hospital service while enjoying excellent work-life balance
✅ Lock in a secure, long-term contract with real flexibility
Whether you’re fresh out of foundation training or a seasoned community pharmacist looking to step into hospital work – this role is open to all GPhC-registered Pharmacists, regardless of experience!
What You’ll Be Doing:
As a vital member of the dispensary team, you’ll:
Dispense and accuracy-check medication for inpatient and outpatient services
Deliver safe, efficient pharmaceutical care within NHS protocols
Communicate with clinical teams and support patient pathways
Maintain detailed records and uphold GPhC standards
Learn from a brilliant team and boost your clinical exposure
Requirements:
GPhC registration – that’s it!
No hospital experience? No problem. Enthusiasm and reliability go a long way here.
Why Sussex?
Think coastal living, green countryside, and easy commutes from London and the South East. Ideal for locums who want a refreshing change of scenery without sacrificing earnings.
