Crynodeb
An opportunity has arisen at Wirral University Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust for a newly qualified Orthoptist. We are looking for a full time Band 5 Orthoptist (37.5hours/week), to work as part of our friendly team.
The successful candidate will gain experience in a wide range of orthoptic services, which will include working as a member of a highly specialist team in paediatric ophthalmology, ocular motility and neuro-ophthalmology clinics.
The position is based at Arrowe Park Hospital with a possibility of single handed community clinics across the Wirral Peninsula, as competency increases.
We are an accredited department for orthoptic under-graduates on placement and as a teaching hospital we are involved in the clinical teaching of medical students, junior doctors, student nurses and pre-registration optometrists. An interest in teaching will therefore be an advantage. We are committed to CPD and allocate time for this.
All new colleagues can expect to receive a warm and friendly Wirral welcome from the very first time they make contact with us. We are described as “competent and caring staff” by our patients.

We have approximately 855 beds trust-wide and our financial turnover is in excess of £337m.
The Wirral is easily accessible with excellent transport links including motorway, train, bus or ferry and within easy reach to the major cities of Liverpool, Chester and Manchester as well as neighbouring North Wales.
A degree or equivalent in Orthoptics and state registration with the HCPC is essential
