About the Opportunity

We're working with a well-established optical practice that is looking for an experienced Optical Assistant to join a small, friendly team.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working in a relaxed, personable environment, where you can take pride in looking after patients and helping the practice deliver an excellent level of service.

The practice is looking for someone who can genuinely look after everything across the practice and become a trusted and valued member of the team.

What They're Looking For

The ideal candidate will have around 2 years' experience as an Optical Assistant and be confident dispensing to all levels.

They're looking for someone who is:

  • Hard-working and reliable
  • Trustworthy and professional
  • Bubbly, friendly and personable
  • Confident dispensing to all levels
  • Comfortable working independently within a small team
  • Naturally good with patients and able to build strong relationships
  • Commercially aware, with the confidence to identify opportunities to increase sales

Why Consider This Role?

A genuinely relaxed environment
There are no aggressive sales targets or heavy KPI culture. You'll be trusted to do a good job and look after your patients.

Small and friendly team
You'll work closely with the Optometrist in a compact team where everyone knows each other and plays an important role.

Your success is rewarded
The practice wants to increase dispensing performance and, if you can help achieve that, there is an opportunity to benefit financially through the bonus structure.

The Role

  • Full-time position
  • Approximately 2 years' optical experience preferred
  • Dispensing to all levels
  • Patient care and customer service
  • Frame and lens selection
  • Supporting the day-to-day running of the practice
  • Helping to develop dispensing sales
  • Working alongside the Optometrist

Salary & Benefits

  • Basic salary up to £27,000 DOE
  • Pension
  • 20 days' holiday + 8 bank holidays
  • Free parking
  • Relaxed working environment
  • No aggressive KPI culture

Who Would Suit This Role?

This would particularly suit an Optical Assistant who has gained solid experience and is now looking for somewhere they can settle into a friendly team without the pressure and corporate feel of a large, target-driven environment.

If you're someone who takes pride in your work, enjoys speaking to patients, knows your optics and wants to be trusted to get on with the job, this could be a very good fit.
