Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This is a dedicated glaucoma service in a purpose-built eye hospital — you see glaucoma patients, with consultant support and modern diagnostic equipment, rather than fitting glaucoma around a general ophthalmology list.
Key Responsibilities

- Interpret diagnostic results including IOP, visual fields, OCT, fundus assessment, CCT and gonioscopy
- Build glaucoma management plans in line with NICE and Optegra clinical guidance
- Deliver treatment, including medication management, SLT and PI where appropriate
- Carry out pre-operative and post-operative consultations
- Explain treatment options, risks and benefits clearly to patients, carers and families
- Maintain accurate records on electronic patient systems
- Work with consultants, optometrists, nurses and wider clinical colleagues
- Support audit and service improvement across the glaucoma pathway
- Follow clinical governance, CQC, infection prevention and safeguarding standards

Essential
- Medical degree from a recognised university
- Current GMC registration with a licence to practise in the UK
- Ophthalmology experience with a focus on glaucoma management
- Gonioscopy competence
- Strong diagnostic and clinical decision-making skills
