The role

Salary: Up to £75,000 (subject to your experience and location)

Company car and £1,000 mobile allowance

Working hours: Full time (4 or 5 days per week)

We’re looking for a mobile optometrist to join our team, working from a base store in Peterborough and providing optometrist support to stores within an hour of this location and towards Cambridge. Experience the variety of working across locations with the consistency of our clinical standards, development opportunities and support.

What you’ll get

• Sales and performance-based bonus: Our bonus scheme rewards your performance, with an on-target bonus of up to £5,040 and the potential for higher rewards when your store achieves beyond expectations.
• Private medical cover for you and your family: We go the extra mile when it comes to your health. With private medical cover, not just for you, but for your family too.
• Life assurance: With life assurance worth four times your salary, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your loved ones are protected, whatever happens.
• Overtime opportunities: Exclusive to Vision Express, the TG Pool is our network that gives optometrists flexibility to pick up shifts paid at 80% of the locum rate.
• Share options: When you grow, we grow – and success should be shared. Our colleagues can purchase shares in EssilorLuxottica with additional free shares gifted by us.
• A pension that plans for your future: Our competitive pension scheme helps you build a secure future, so you can focus on what matters most today.

• Are a qualified, GOC registered optometrist
• Use your clinical expertise to deliver a clear diagnosis that builds patient confidence
• Enjoy being part of a team – sharing ideas, supporting colleagues, and working together
• Contribute to the commercial success of the store – focusing on performance, growth, and delivering an outstanding customer experience
