This is a genuinely new Clinical Pharmacist post, created because the practice has decided that medicines management deserves a dedicated, directly employed pharmacist rather than relying solely on shared PCN resource. You will work alongside the existing PCN pharmacy team, taking a natural degree of ownership over how prescribing and medicines optimisation run day to day, with real scope to help design minor illness clinics from scratch rather than stepping into a fixed structure.
The practice is based in Battersea, Southwest London, with strong transport links across the capital. Clapham Junction and Battersea Park stations both sit close by, putting Waterloo around 10 minutes away and Victoria around 15 minutes away by train. Wandsworth and Clapham are both a short drive away, both popular areas for professionals to live and commute from.
Established GP Training Practice, hosting medical students and GP trainees across all stages of training. Operates across two sites in Southwest London, including a newly opened, purpose built second site with modern facilities such as onsite minor surgery and a spirometry suite. Strong partnership team and large salaried GP team, supported by three duty doctors and a triage doctor on site every day. Mid‑size practice serving a broad and varied local population. CQC rated Good across all five domains.

- Potential for a compressed four‑day working week, which could include one contracted work‑from‑home day per week once probation is complete.
- Newly created, practice‑owned Clinical Pharmacist role, working as an independent prescriber across medication reviews, reconciliation and repeat prescribing.
- Genuine scope to help shape minor illness clinics and wider medicines optimisation services from the ground up.
