Job Description

Role Description

We are looking for a Qualified Vision Rehabilitation Professional to join our award-winning eye care and vision team at SeeAbility, working with people with Learning disabilities, autism, and complex support needs, many of whom have sight loss. You will work as part of our vision rehabilitation team across SeeAbility's residential and support living environments to provide assessment, rehabilitation, and habilitation intervention to increase independence, choice, and control for the people SeeAbility support. You will also provide training to SeeAbility's wider support teams to empower them to understand and support visual needs for the people we support on a daily basis.

Since we began as the Royal School for the Blind in 1799, SeeAbility has held a unique role. We are the only charity in the UK - and possibly globally - that focuses on the strong link between sight loss and learning disability.

Our research shows that people with a learning disability are ten times more likely to experience sight loss. This makes eye care a priority for us.

Our Benefits

You will have excellent interpersonal and relationship-building skills and an ability to work proactively and autonomously as part of a team that works to ensure that everyone we support at SeeAbility has their eye and vision needs optimally understood and met.

Requirements

To be considered for this role, you will have:

  • a Foundation Degree/Diploma in Higher Education in Vision Rehabilitation Studies or equivalent.
  • a full valid driving licence and own vehicle.
  • experience of working with people with a learning disability, autism is desirable but not essential.
