The Role

The Programmes Team plays a vital role in helping our partners around the world use Peek Solutions to strengthen their health systems and connect more people to better vision. Our partners include international NGOs, local service providers, and national governments. The team leads the implementation of Peek programmes and provides frontline support as partners design and roll out their Peek-powered services.

As a Programme Management Lead based in India, you will be responsible for delivering programmes in collaboration with our partnerships and implementation teams. You will also drive continuous improvement in our delivery practices, using evidence and insights gathered from each programme.

To succeed in this role, you’ll bring experience in project management, programme implementation (particularly in low- and middle-income settings), relationship-building, and evidence-based learning.

This role is central to Peek’s ambitious growth plans in India. We are onboarding new partners—including NGOs and charitable eye hospitals—to expand access to eye care through Peek. In this role, you will work closely with colleagues across the organisation, including subject matter experts in public eye health, training and support, partnership management, product development, and software development.

Peek’s staff are distributed internationally around the globe and our customers and software users operate and deliver programmes in multiple countries. Travel to programmes using Peek in different countries will be part of the role (in line with Peek’s Travel Safety Policy). Peek’s culture enables a self managed team structure. This provides a high level of ownership and accountability within each role, and enables effective and frequent collaboration between team members and across teams.

• Develop and manage relationships with government partners, NGOs,funders, hospitals, schools and other key stakeholders.   
• Collaborate within the Programmes team to design and oversee the implementation of eye health programmes, aligned with organisational goals and relevant national eye health strategies.
• Support partners with continuous improvement of their eye health programme through data analysis, monitoring and evaluation and reporting.
• Collaborate with the relevant Peek teams to support the design, implementation and scale-up of new training models in India and beyond, as part of Peek sustainability plans.

• Strong knowledge and expertise in eye health and/or public health. Familiarity with tools like RAAB (Rapid Assessment of Avoidable Blindness) and national VISION 2020/WHO frameworks is an added advantage.
• Relevant experience implementing projects in eye health and/or other public health sectors.
• Proven ability to confidently develop and manage relationships with high-level NGOs, government bodies, and other key stakeholders.
• Proven ability to manage complex, multi-partner programmes across multiple sites.
• Extensive experience working in/with low and middle-income countries, and in India specifically.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills. 

Desirable attributes for the role are:

• Evidence of working well with remote teams.
• Ability to execute planning and change management.
• Ability to work with diverse teams and build strong stakeholder relationships.
• Postgraduate qualification in a related field or equivalent experience in public health setting. 

About Peek

1.1 billion people live with avoidable or preventable vision loss. This number is set to grow to 1.8 billion by 2050. The vast majority (90%) need just a simple pair of glasses or cataract surgery. So why do so many not have access to these simple, life-changing solutions?

Across the world, eye health professionals work tirelessly. But they face huge challenges. Resources are scarce, specialists are in short supply, patients don’t arrive at appointments and outcomes can be hard to track. Many people with vision loss don’t know a solution exists or struggle to reach care.  They remain invisible to health services.

Peek Vision is a social enterprise that works with NGOs and governments to bring vision and eye health to everyone. Our software and data intelligence platform strengthens health systems and optimises school, community and workplace eye health services.With Peek, eye health providers can identify gaps and inequalities in their services. People who would have been invisible to health workers or hard to reach are made visible, so that nobody is left behind.

By 2050, we aim to prevent 1.25 billion people from needlessly losing their eyesight.

We are dynamic, impact-driven and award-winning. Our products have been developed in collaboration with eye health providers, professional bodies and researchers. They reflect global best practices in health systems decision-making. We currently offer eye health providers:

Rapid assessments: Software and tools to help programme planners understand their populations’ eye health needs.

Peek-powered programmes: Software to implement, optimise and evaluate eye health services in schools and communities.

Peek is powering eye health programmes in multiple countries. Millions of people have their vision screened using Peek each year.
