Job description

We are looking for a Dispensing Optician to join our Northcote Road practice for 24 hours / 3 days per week (Monday / Wednesday and Saturday's 9am - 5:30pm).

As an integral member of the team, we will provide our Dispensing Optician with an enjoyable professional working environment which is fun, open and where we are committed to supporting you, your professional development, and your personal wellbeing. We will also provide a wide range of benefits, including:

• Salary up to £35 per annum (pro rata for part time hours).
• 5 weeks’ holiday (pro rata for part time hours)
• Additional days holiday for your birthday each year.
• Company pension scheme.

• Paid professional fees (GOC and professional indemnity which is currently the AOP - if part time pro rata).

When you join Bayfields Opticians & Audiologists as our Dispensing Optician, you are joining an independent business. Although we are national, we are not a huge chain which means we understand the importance of local relationships and the power of choice. We aim to deliver obsessively great service to each and every one of our clients which is at the core of what we do.

As our Dispensing Optician, you will work closely with our Optometrists to determine the best solutions for your 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 client journey and putting your clients at the forefront of their time in the practice.

You will be a qualified FBDO and GOC registered Dispensing Optician with excellent communication and listening skills and the ability to build strong relationships with your team members, peers, and clients.

If you are ready for a new and exciting opportunity, then we would love to hear from you!
