The programme operates across Hertfordshire and the successful candidates would be expected to travel out to selected venues, usually in Community Health settings and Hospitals to take photographs of the eye for grading and recording.
Those interested need not necessarily have either screening or health care backgrounds but would be seen as advantageous if they did, as full training will be provided where necessary.

As well as your salary, there are a range of NHS benefits available and the post may attract a High-Cost Area allowance dependent on your work location.
The Diabetic Eye Screening Programme provides a public health service to the Hertfordshire and West Essex population with diabetes, a long-term condition.
