Are you somebody who would love to use your successful track record of working with volunteers, experience of partnership working and commitment to person-centred working practices? Do you have an awareness or understanding of sight loss and outstanding organisational and communication skills?

Macular disease is the biggest cause of sight loss in the UK, with around 300 people diagnosed every day. The Macular Society is the only charity determined to beat the fear and isolation of macular disease with world class research and, the best advice and support.

To support people affected by macular disease now, the Macular Society provides a range of support, information and services. Their research programme is focused on finding new treatments and a cure to beat macular disease forever.

You will work towards expanding and developing a sustainable peer support network for people living with macular conditions, within the North East of England.

We are an equal opportunities employer and we welcome applications from all suitably qualified persons.
