Dispensing optician, Leyland

Job Description

We’re looking for a full or part time experienced Dispensing Optician to join us in delivering the kind of personalised, patient-first care we’re known for. You’ll be a commercial minded person playing an important role in helping people see and feel their best, by offering expert advice, guiding them through frame and lens choices, and making sure every fit is as comfortable and accurate as it is stylish.

From longer test times of 45 minutes to our commitment to offering the latest technological advances such as OCT and Optomap, everything we do is designed to offer our patients the very best in clinical care.

This role is perfect for someone who enjoys connecting with people, building trust with patients, and being part of a supportive, tight-knit team. You’ll have the time and freedom to do your job properly by providing honest, expert care. Working closely with the rest of the team, you’ll help create a smooth and positive experience for every patient who walks through the door.

As a qualified Dispensing Optician, you’ll use your technical skills and product knowledge to recommend the best lens and frame options for each individual’s visual and lifestyle needs. You’ll take accurate measurements, ensure high-quality fittings, and manage complex prescriptions or adjustments with confidence. You’ll also be on hand to support patients with queries or concerns, help the team resolve any dispensing-related issues, and contribute to the upkeep and organisation of the practice. Most importantly, you’ll be someone who takes pride in great service — and who brings warmth, care, and expertise to every interaction.
