Safeguarding & Prevention - Guiding Care with Compassion
Are you ready to lead a service that truly changes lives? We're looking for a passionate and experienced Lead Vision Rehabilitation Specialist to join our Hearing & Vision Team.
This role supports adults across Wiltshire who are blind or partially sighted. You'll lead a team of dedicated professionals, delivering specialist assessments and personalised rehabilitation programmes that help people live independently and safely in their own homes and communities.
You'll be responsible for the day-to-day running of the service, supervising staff, managing complex cases, and working closely with partners across health, social care, and the voluntary sector. You'll also play a key role in safeguarding, service development, and shaping how we support people with sight loss across the county.
We're looking for someone with a recognised qualification in vision rehabilitation, strong leadership skills, and a deep understanding of the challenges faced by people with sensory loss. You'll be based in County Hall, Trowbridge but work flexibly across our hubs in Chippenham, Devizes, and Salisbury, with some home working and travel beyond Wiltshire.
If you're committed to inclusion, independence, and making a real difference, we'd love to hear from you.
