    You will have NVQ level 3 in Care or Science or 4 GCSE's at Grade C or above including English and Maths (or equivalent). You will also need to be able to retrieve multiple tissues from newly deceased donors. You must have good IT and organisational skills as you will have considerable administrative duties.

  • You will be competent to facilitate the retrieval of eyes from deceased donors without supervision at non-NHSBT locations after training and assessment.
