Description

The McIndoe Centre is renowned for its excellence in specialist surgical care, delivering personalised treatment within a welcoming, modern environment. We are now looking for a dedicated and motivated Ophthalmic Technician (Bank) to join our expanding clinical team.

This flexible bank role is ideal for someone who is passionate about delivering high‑quality patient care, thrives in a clinical setting, and enjoys working as part of a supportive and multidisciplinary team.

About the Role

As an Ophthalmic Technician, you will play a key part in supporting our ophthalmology service by providing high‑quality diagnostic testing and patient care. Working closely with consultants, nurses, and administrative teams, you will help ensure smooth and efficient clinic operations.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Carrying out ophthalmic diagnostic tests including visual fields, OCT, biometry, fundus photography, and visual acuity assessment.
  • Preparing patients for clinical assessments and providing clear, compassionate explanations of diagnostic procedures.
  • Ensuring equipment is maintained, cleaned, and calibrated according to clinical standards.
  • Accurately documenting results and updating patient records and clinical systems.
  • Supporting consultants and nursing staff during ophthalmic clinics.
  • Upholding exceptional infection control standards and ensuring a safe, high‑quality clinical environment.
  • Supporting administrative tasks as needed to maintain smooth clinic flow.

About You

We are looking for someone who is:

  • Experienced in ophthalmic diagnostics.
  • Confident using clinical equipment, IT systems, and electronic patient records.
  • Highly organised with excellent attention to detail.
  • Calm, reassuring, and able to put patients at ease during clinical procedures.
  • A strong communicator with a compassionate, patient‑centred approach.
  • Able to work effectively within a multidisciplinary team.

Working with us means joining a team that is committed to care, integrity, quality, and patient‑centred excellence. As part of our bank workforce, you will enjoy:

  • Hourly rate: £16.90 per hour
  • Flexible working hours to suit your availability.
  • A friendly and supportive environment.

At Horder Healthcare, we are proud to champion and celebrate diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging in all areas of our business. We are committed to creating an environment of mutual respect where equal employment opportunities are available to all applicants without regard to protected characteristics by applicable law.

As a disability confident employer, we are pleased to offer our full support should you require an alternative method of applying or any reasonable adjustments to be made during the recruitment process.
