About the job

Company Description

With more than 13,000 employees representing 160 professions, the Geneva University Hospitals are a reference institution at both national and international levels. To learn more about our institution, take a few minutes to view our 2025 retrospective by clicking here .

The HUG Pharmacy's mission is to ensure a reliable and responsive supply of medicines from the pharmacy to the care units, anticipating market risks; to manufacture customised medicines in compliance with quality standards to improve safety of use; to offer expertise to healthcare professionals and patients to optimise medication management from prescription to administration; and to be a centre of reference and expertise in training, teaching, and research, integrating innovative methods.

Job Description

You will undertake a full-time, two-year postgraduate training leading to an FPH certificate in clinical pharmacy. This training aims to expand the pharmacist's knowledge and skills to enable them to develop an independent clinical activity in the hospital, integrate into the interprofessional team around the patient, and promote continuity of medication treatments with the community setting. It includes theoretical training, practical training (medication reviews during medical rounds, answering questions and drafting documents at the pharmaceutical information centre), personal training (literature study), and a written work (presentation of clinical cases).

Clinical learning is primarily conducted in internal medicine (cardiology, endocrinology, pulmonology, nephrology, angiology, infectious diseases, gastroenterology) with a few months in geriatrics. Rotations in other areas are also possible at the end of the training, depending on the availability of supervision (oncology, surgery, paediatrics, intensive care, etc.).

The remuneration is aligned with that of other postgraduate trainings at the HUG Pharmacy and corresponds to a 50% activity rate.

You have good teamwork skills and ease in relating to medical and nursing staff. You have the ability and willingness to acquire new knowledge. You are autonomous, flexible, and show commitment.

You are comfortable with IT tools and have perfect oral and written command of French.

Qualifications

You hold a federal diploma as a pharmacist or an equivalent recognised qualification.
