We are looking for a full time Optical Assistant to join us in delivering outstanding patient care. Experience is preferable, although not essential.

We are also looking for someone who shares our dedication to putting patients first and spending the time needed to get to the bottom of their visual needs.

Ultimately, you must be an ambassador for our brand and profession within the local community.

Educating others about the benefits of independent eye care is an ongoing challenge and one that we look forward to meeting head-on with you as a part of our team.,

  • Our local community is part of our identity, and we regularly see the benefits our work has when we're out in the area too

    We are a committed independent, dedicated to providing our patients with an exceptional experience in practice.

    If you're naturally interested in fashion, science, and a role where you can interact with new people daily, this role is for you.

    You'll be working with amazing brands and cutting-edge equipment, all alongside our supportive and friendly team of experts.

    Additionally, you will also have the opportunity to impact the lives of our patients in a positive and meaningful way.

    A new pair of glasses can make a huge difference to patients, and there's nothing more rewarding than seeing them smile as they leave us with the perfect pair of frames.
