Job Description

Optical Practice Manager - Sales-Focused Leader

Independent Opticians Full-Time Derbyshire

YOU MUST HAVE 2 YEARS EXPERIENCE IN AN OPTICAL LEADERSHIP ROLE OR YOUR APPLICATION WILL BE REJECTED

Starting Salary: £30,000 + Bonuses

This is not a maintenance role.
This is a build, lead and drive role.

A newly opened, modern independent opticians is looking for a commercially driven Optical Practice Manager to take ownership of the day-to-day running of the practice and, more importantly, drive footfall, conversion and revenue.

The practice has the foundations in place - new fit-out, committed directors and a small clinical/support team - but now needs a strong sales leader who can take control, lead from the front and turn potential into performance.

The role

As Practice Manager, you'll be responsible for:

  • Leading and motivating the team from the front
  • Driving footfall, conversion and average dispensing value
  • Owning sales performance and commercial activity
  • Training and developing the team to improve confidence and results
  • Managing rotas, standards, compliance and day-to-day operations
  • Supporting recruitment, appraisals and performance management
  • Working closely with the Director to grow the business

Who this role suits

  • An experienced Optical Practice Manager, Assistant Manager or Supervisor with a strong sales background
  • A proactive, confident leader who isn't afraid to take the bull by the horns
  • Someone who thrives in a start-up / growth environment
  • A manager who understands that visibility, energy and leadership drive results
  • Optical experience is essential; management qualification is not

This is about attitude, commercial instinct and leadership, not titles.

What's on offer

  • Starting salary around £30,000 + Bonuses
  • 20 days holiday plus bank holidays
  • Significant performance-related bonuses when targets are achieved
  • Clear opportunity to grow with the business as it develops
  • Long-term progression for someone who proves themselves

Working pattern

  • Full-time role
  • Weekday trading with Saturdays included
  • Based in a busy shopping centre environment

If you're the kind of manager who wants ownership, responsibility and the chance to genuinely influence a business's success, this role will give you that platform.
