The role will entail dispensing spectacles to all levels, conducting pre-screen tests and contact lens teaches. You will also be required to carry out frame styling and give patients advice on best options. For candidates with suitable experience, you can also take on supervisory responsibilities offering support and training where needed.

As a qualified Dispensing Optician within this practice, you will work as one of the primary dispensers on the shop floor. You will be on hand to help junior members of the team with any difficult questions and general troubleshooting.
