The charity is deeply embedded in the history, culture, and life of Fife and today it helps thousands of people who are sight impaired to enjoy independence in all areas of their lives. Thanks to the Society, there is now a clear pathway for anyone in Fife concerned about their eyesight from full visual screening to practical and emotional support. While practices and technology has changed over the years, the charity’s core aim remains the same – to make life with sight loss easier and allow people to be as independent as possible.

This is an exciting time to join the team and get involved in something quite unique.

This is an incredibly rare opportunity for a motivated and driven individual to join a dedicated and supportive team to work collaboratively to improve the outcomes for people living with sight impairment. You will be integral to developing the vision and growth of The Optician at Fife Society and its services whilst supporting the wider charity achieve its aims.
