Diabetic Eye Screener (Photographer)
Retinal Screener Opportunity – South West London Eye Screening Programme
About NEC Care
NEC Care is part of the NEC Health division, delivering the national diabetic eye screening programme. Our mission is to provide people-centric services that improve health and wellbeing by achieving excellence in service delivery.
The South West London (SWL) Diabetes Eye Screening Programme (DESP) operates retinal screening clinics and image grading services across the South West London boroughs. Commissioned by Public Health England for the NHS, our service aligns with the National Service Framework (NSF) and National Screening Committee (NSC) guidelines.
The Role
A permanent, full-time position (37.5 hours per week, spread over 5 days) is available to join our South West London eye screening programme. As a retinal screener, you’ll play a vital role in improving patients' lives through:
- Running local retinal screening clinics to assess patients suffering from diabetic retinopathy
- Photographing eyes and providing consultations about health and visual outcomes
- Engaging empathetically with patients on a daily basis
- Working largely unsupervised (post-training) in a sometimes pressured environment—this requires a cool, patient demeanour
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
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.
We’re looking for candidates who are: ✔ Customer-focused and highly empathetic—comfortable discussing sensitive health matters ✔ Eager to learn (we’ll provide the necessary training and qualifications) ✔ Organised, prioritisation-skilled, and proactive problem-solvers ✔ Resilient and composure-under-pressure in a fast-paced setting ✔ A previous public-facing role (ideal but not essential) ✔ Five GCSEs (A-C) or equivalent: English, Maths, and a Science subject
No prior clinical experience is required—this is an entry-level role with upskilling support.
