VisionSpring recrute pour ce poste (10 Mars 2023)

À propos du travail

Description
Vous connaissez et aimez les lunettes ? Êtes-vous prêt à aider à restaurer la vision et à créer un accès aux lunettes pour les clients à faible revenu à travers le Ghana ?

• VisionSpring, une entreprise sociale internationale, recherche un présélectionneur de vision à temps plein pour rejoindre son équipe de projet Vision Access au Ghana.
• Le présélectionneur joue un rôle important dans la tenue de camps de vision sur les lieux de travail et dans les communautés – en accueillant chaleureusement les clients, en présélectionnant les clients et en les dirigeant vers le membre de l’équipe approprié pour les prochaines étapes, en programmant des examens de la vue, en donnant des conseils de premier ordre sur soins de la vue et répondre aux questions. 
• S/he will make sure everything runs as smoothly as possible in the vision camps by staying alert for and solving problems as they arise.

About You:

• You are passionate about improving the accessibility of affordable eyeglasses to earners and learners vulnerable to poverty.
• You are a natural teacher. You love sharing your knowledge and getting others excited about what they are going to do.
• You enjoy talking to new people and take pride in making sure that every customer you serve has a great experience and leaves feeling satisfied and excited about sharing his/her VisionSpring experience with friends and family.
• You are a roll-up-your-sleeves, hands-on team player. To provide the highest-quality service to your customers, you are not above doing any task, large or small.
• You set a positive example through practices like punctuality, respect, and commitment to work.
• You express a willingness to constantly learn about how to better serve your customer’s needs.

About Us:

• We are creating access to affordable eyewear, everywhere. Clear vision creates opportunities for increased learning, work, safety, civic participation, and quality of life.
• As a social enterprise, social change motivates us first. Our focus on sales and revenue targets serves and advances our mission objective – to increase our customer’s quality of life, productivity in the workplace, and income earning potential by providing them with eyeglasses for clear vision.
• We are working to transform the systemic dysfunction of an optical market that has failed to deliver eyeglasses – a 700-year-old technology – to 2.5 billion consumers in need of vision correction, most of whom live on less than $4 a day.
• We serve low-income consumers, not as beneficiaries, but as customers. Our c1ustomers expect a high-quality and affordable product, and they will spend limited discretionary income for the immediate and tangible benefits of vision correction.
• By selling eyeglasses, we awaken new demand and seed a viable market. By selling new eyeglasses we can serve four times as many people per dollar input than the alternative of donating recycled ones. To efficiently scale, we must deliver each new unit with lower cost.
• We run our business on both sales metrics and social impact measures. We exploit a range of organizational forms and practices to get the job done.
• We believe in scaling our impact, not our organization. We are a lean team of doers.

What You’ll Do:

• Work in an outreach/field environment in low resource settings.
• Conduct vision assessment for customers at vision camps.
• Examine, diagnose and treat eye conditions.
• Communicate with people to get their detailed eye-related case histories and understand their concerns.
• Document and collate all cataract cases diagnosed on the field for appropriate action.
• Diagnose Presbyopia and prescribe reading glasses where appropriate.
• Triage customers to determine those who need to see the Optometrist.
• Train local implementing teams on vision assessment and pre-screening.
• Maintain a clean, tidy, and safe environment for customers and staff.
• Promote eye health, and general health related to clear vision, by counselling customers on vision and eye care, good visual hygiene practices, and proper eyeglass care. Offer advice and reassurance about vision-related matters.
• Assist in the collection of customer stories, and survey data to help understand customer satisfaction, preferences, and barriers to vision and optical care.
• Monitor and supervise the dispensing of eye drops.
• Carry out any other additional duties as may be assigned by the supervisor.
• Conduct community eye health talks during vision camps to equip customers with information on camp flow and healthy eye care practices.

Requirements:

• Higher Diploma in Ophthalmic Nursing from a recognized institution.
• 1 à 3 ans d’expérience, y compris sur le terrain, dans le secteur de la santé avec une ou plusieurs ONG internationales.
• Expérience dans l’enseignement, la formation, les activités de changement de comportement et / ou le conseil.
• Très organisé, fiable et rapide. Capacité à effectuer plusieurs tâches tout en respectant le calendrier et les délais. Solides compétences en communication et en relations interpersonnelles.
• Volonté de voyager à travers les districts du Ghana, avec des nuitées au besoin, pour les programmes d’accès à la vision, les programmes communautaires de soins oculaires / de soins de santé, les programmes de sensibilisation, les formations ou à toute autre fin que VisionSpring juge nécessaire.

Compensation:

• Le salaire est basé sur l’expérience et l’éducation.
• Veuillez noter que seuls les candidats à interviewer seront contactés.
• VisionSpring est un employeur garantissant l’égalité des chances. VisionSpring ne fait pas et ne fera pas de discrimination dans les pratiques d’emploi et de personnel fondée sur la race, le sexe, l’âge, la religion, l’origine nationale ou toute autre base interdite par la loi applicable.
