Sight Loss Advisor

Do you want a job where no two days are the same, tasks are different and the people you work with are different each day? Are you interested in supporting people with sight loss to become more independent and confident in accessing information, support and services? The role of Sight Loss Advisor might be for you.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who is enthusiastic, reliable, motivated and caring, interested in supporting with low vision information, advice and guidance.
As a Sight Loss Advisor you will be the first line of support for those approaching Beacon for practical and emotional support. You will undertake initial assessments to ascertain the most appropriate support for people, be that with Beacon or with partner organisations. You will also provide initial information, advice, guidance and low vision product support.

The successful candidate will have personal or professional knowledge of sight loss and the impact on individuals, communities, families and employers as well as experience of providing information, advice and guidance. Every person we support, we do so with compassion, professionalism and empathy to help change people's lives.
