Consultant Pharmacist - Radiology, Endoscopy & NHS Screening Services

Contract: Bank / Part Time - Consultancy
Location: National (remote with occasional site visits)

We support over 5 million patients every year, working in partnership with the NHS to reduce waiting times, improve access to diagnostics, and deliver high-quality care closer to home.

We’re now looking for a Consultant Pharmacist to shape and strengthen medicines governance across our radiology, endoscopy and screening services - playing a critical role in ensuring safe, effective and compliant care at scale.

 The opportunity

This is a high-impact, strategic advisory role where your expertise will influence how medicines are managed across a national diagnostic provider.

As our senior medicines governance lead, you’ll work closely with clinical and operational leaders to embed best practice, strengthen governance, and continuously improve patient safety.

What you’ll be responsible for

• Leading the medicines management strategy across radiology, endoscopy and screening services
• Acting as the organisation’s expert advisor on medicines governance and safety
• Developing and maintaining policies and frameworks aligned to UK legislation, CQC standards and national guidance
• Authoring and overseeing Patient Group Directives (PGDs) across clinical pathways
• Providing specialist advice on contrast agents, bowel preparation, sedation and medicines handling
• Contributing to Medicines Management Committee meetings
• Supporting audits, incident reviews and quality improvement initiatives

You will bring:

• Registration with the GPhC
• Significant experience in medicines governance within NHS or independent healthcare
• Expertise in policy development and PGDs
• Strong understanding of UK medicines legislation, CQC requirements and NHS frameworks
• The ability to engage, advise and influence senior stakeholders
