Description
Jonathan Bevan, Digitial Medicines Lead Pharmacist - jonathan.bevan4@nhs.net
About The Role
This is an opportunity to join a developing Digital Medicines team at a pivotal stage in the Trust’s Electronic Patient Record programme. The role sits at the interface of clinical practice, medicines optimisation, and digital transformation, providing clinical leadership to support the implementation and ongoing development of Electronic Prescribing and Medicines Administration (EPMA) and wider Digital Medicines functionality.
You will lead defined elements of Digital Medicines workstreams, supporting the design, configuration, and optimisation of systems to ensure they are clinically safe, effective, and aligned with real-world workflows. Working closely with pharmacy, medical, nursing, and digital colleagues, you will provide clinical expertise to guide system development, support adoption, and ensure that digital solutions are appropriately embedded within practice.
The post offers a balance of clinical leadership, system design, and governance responsibility, ensuring that digital development remains grounded in patient care and safety. You will play a key role in clinical safety assurance, audit, and governance processes, supporting the safe deployment and ongoing optimisation of Digital Medicines systems.
This role is well suited to a pharmacist with a strong interest in digital healthcare and service development, offering the opportunity to lead on key aspects of EPMA and EPR delivery while developing expertise in clinical informatics and service transformation within a supportive and evolving environment.
Main duties
The post holder will provide advanced clinical leadership and specialist expertise in the design, implementation, optimisation, and governance of Digital Medicines systems within the Trust’s Electronic Patient Record. The role operates at the interface between clinical practice, digital infrastructure, and organisational transformation, ensuring that medicines-related digital pathways are safe, effective, and aligned with clinical workflows, regulatory standards, and organisational prior ities.
Acting as a senior clinical lead within Digital Medicines programmes, the post holder will translate clinical requirements into system design, ensuring that prescribing and medicines administration processes are supported by robust, usable, and clinically safe digital solutions. They will play a key role in clinical safety assurance, supporting the safe deployment of system changes and ensuring that digital functionality enhances, rather than disrupts, clinical decision making.
The post holder will lead defined workstreams within EPR and EPMA programmes, with responsibility for system configuration, clinical validation, workflow redesign, and post-implementation optimisation. Working in partnership with pharmacy, medical, nursing, and digital colleagues, they will ensure that system design reflects real-world clinical practice and delivers measurable improvements in patient safety, service efficiency, and user experience.
