This is an exciting opportunity to join our team as a  Team Leader in the Complex Medical Retina Team within Ophthalmology. We have world leaders in developing and managing retinal diseases as part of our clinical team. 

If you are looking for a role where you can demonstrate your unique skills we would welcome your application for this busy but rewarding role.

This role would be ideal for someone with great organisational skills, who enjoys problem solving and is looking to work in a team that provides essential lifetime support for patients with retinal conditions requiring ongoing treatments.

The service provides injection therapies and laser treatments alongside standard clinic visits. There are a high volume of patients reliant on the service and as their pathways change due to disease progression, an ability to modify how service delivery is achieved is essential.
