This is your opportunity to work at the cutting edge of cannabis-based medicines, supporting patients with complex, often life-changing conditions, in a role that truly values your clinical judgement and expertise.

Join a passionate, forward-thinking team in a rapidly growing field where no two patients – or days – are the same. You’ll have real autonomy, meaningful patient impact, and the chance to influence how care is delivered, not just today but for years to come.

What is the job?

We are recruiting a Clinical Pharmacist (Independent Prescriber) to join our expansion into Bristol, with the clinic opening imminently.

This is a hands‑on, patient-focused role. You will prescribe and review cannabis-based medicines for patients with complex clinical needs, delivering safe, effective, and personalized treatment across a wide range of conditions.

Collaboration is central to how we work. You will be part of a multidisciplinary clinical team, contributing to outstanding patient outcomes, clinical pathway development, education initiatives, and service improvements. It is a genuine opportunity to grow your expertise and make a lasting impact in a fast‑evolving specialty.

The role is based three days on site and two days remotely. Core hours are 11 am to 8 pm on weekdays, with two weekend shifts per month (Saturday or Sunday). Days in lieu are provided for all weekend working.

What will you be doing?

• Clinically check and review CBPM prescriptions for safety and accuracy.
• Prescribe medicines as an Independent Prescriber, tailoring treatments to individual patient needs.
• Provide expert guidance to prescribers and patients on treatment options.
• Maintain accurate patient records in line with GPhC standards.
• Support the dispensary team by handling complex clinical queries.
• Deliver education and training on CBPM to patients, clinicians, and staff.
• Collaborate with the wider team to streamline processes and improve outcomes.

What do you need?

• GPhC registered pharmacist with an Independent Prescriber (IP) qualification.
• At least 2 years prescribing experience.
• Experience working in a clinical setting.
• Knowledge of CBPM is desired not essential or willingness to undergo specialised training.
• Clear and confident communicator across clinical and non‑clinical settings.
• Highly effective at managing time and prioritizing competing demands.
• Proactive and resourceful when identifying and resolving problems.
• Well‑organised, detail‑oriented, and able to manage complex workflows.

What we offer:

• Generous Leave: 25 days holiday (rising to 27 after year one and 30 after year three) + 8 bank holidays.
• Pension Matching: Up to 5% employer matching contributions.
• Private Healthcare Scheme.
• Flexibility and Wellness: Work‑from‑home options, cycle‑to‑work scheme, and more.
