My client is a small chain of independent opticians who are now recruiting for a Qualified Practice Manager in their central Leeds store. This is a family run practice with over 30 years’ experience in the industry.

Optical Practice Manager

This is a full-time opportunity for a Qualified Practice Manager to join this friendly team. The practice has 2 test rooms and is currently testing 6 days a week.

The practice is a part of a larger independent group with 7 stores. This company has gone from strength to strength in recent years and have continued ambitions to grow further. They are a mid – high end practice serving a mixed demographic of patients.

Responsibilities of the Optical Practice Manager

You will have previous or present experience of working in a supervisory or assistant manager role, where you will have full autonomy of the day to day operation of the practice. You will be managing the day to day operation with emphasis on the business side of things.

You will need to be a Qualified Dispensing Optician as minimum with the ability to dispense glasses to all levels, with the desire to step up into a management role.
