NHS England has moved all recruitment of all trainee pharmacists to the national recruitment system Oriel, which requires placements to be submitted over a year in advance of placements starting.

What are the deadlines for Oriel?

(Note: The deadline for submission of foundation training places for 2027/28 has now passed).

I am interested in employing one or more trainee pharmacists in 2027/28, how can I get involved?

The deadline has now passed for trainee Pharmacist placements in 27/28 but we are actively planning for 2028/29 training year so please get in touch at SAIL@dorsetlpc.org.uk
