Job Description

Independent Prescribing Pharmacist Jobs Bristol

Flame Health Pharmacy are currently recruiting for an experienced and clinically confident Independent Prescribing Pharmacist to join our client’s established online pharmacy service based in Bristol.

This is an excellent opportunity for a GPhC-registered Independent Prescriber who thrives in a structured, governance-led environment and is passionate about delivering safe, patient-centred care within a digital healthcare model.

About the Employer

Our client is a Bristol-based online pharmacy delivering NHS and private services across the UK. The organisation operates under strict regulatory compliance and is registered with the:

  • General Pharmaceutical Council
  • Care Quality Commission

Their service undergoes routine regulatory inspections to ensure compliance with UK prescribing standards, safeguarding, and clinical governance frameworks.

Patients complete structured digital consultations via a secure platform, which are reviewed by qualified prescribers. The organisation prioritises safe prescribing, robust clinical assessment, and evidence-based decision-making.

The Role

This is primarily an office-based role in Bristol, with scope for hybrid working for the right candidate.

As an Independent Prescribing Pharmacist, you will:

  • Review structured online consultations for NHS and private patients
  • Conduct thorough clinical assessments using UK prescribing guidelines
  • Make safe, independent prescribing decisions
  • Ensure timely and appropriate patient communication
  • Escalate or refer cases where clinically indicated
  • Work collaboratively within a multidisciplinary healthcare team
  • Contribute to ongoing development of prescribing protocols and SOPs

This is a fast-paced but well-supported environment, ideal for a pharmacist who is confident working autonomously while maintaining high clinical governance standards.

Clinical Experience

Previous prescribing experience is preferred but not essential.

Experience or clinical interest in any of the following areas would be advantageous:

  • Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)
  • Weight Management
  • Erectile Dysfunction
  • Long-term condition management

Candidates must demonstrate:

  • Current GPhC registration
  • Independent Prescriber annotation
  • Strong clinical reasoning and risk assessment skills
  • Excellent written communication skills (digital-first setting)
  • Commitment to patient safety and ethical prescribing

Salary & Benefits

Competitive salary of £55,000 – £70,000 per annum (DOE)

  • Comprehensive structured onboarding programme
  • Ongoing clinical and operational support
  • 25 days annual leave
  • Full indemnity cover
  • 5% employer pension contribution (matched by 5% employee contribution)
  • Annual appraisal, performance-based bonus & pay review
  • Friendly, professional working environment
