If you are looking for a role that gives you more time to spend with your clients, then please come and join us. We have the latest diagnostic equipment, the latest technological advances in contact lenses, spectacle lenses and frames, and the latest fashions.

You will work closely with your team members to ensure we provide the best solutions for our clients and their lifestyles. It’s not all about dispensing, fitting and adjusting spectacles or even teaching clients how to use contact lenses, it’s about you delivering obsessively great service every step of the client journey and putting your clients at the forefront of their time in the practice.

Key Requirements for this role:

• Registered with the General Optical Council (GOC).
• You hold the FBDO qualification.
