Optometrist - Stranraer - Relocation Package Available! Role summary

This is a golden opportunity for an Optometrist to join the Specsavers Stranraer family. This busy and very welcoming store has received a top industry award in recognition of the fantastic employee experience it provides. This community focused practice also boasts trained optical advisors, dispensing opticians and IP accredited optometrists. If you would prefer to work for a smaller practice that has an independent feel, then look no further!

The store:

With a full redevelopment of the shop completed a couple of years ago, the practice offers excellent facilities which really do make it one of the most trusted opticians in the area.  The team have the opportunity to work towards an Independent Prescribing quali?cation (with ?nancial support from the store) which helps them build relationships with other medical professionals in the area.  The practice offers a range of ?exible working patterns to help strike the right balance between career and home life and most of the team choose to work four longer days and enjoy a leisurely 3 days off a week. 

The town:

Stranraer is located on the south west coast at the southern end of Lochryan. With a great community feel, excellent amenities and the much revered title of ’Warmest Place in Scotland’ the town really is a great place to build a life.  There are several beaches both in Stranraer and the surrounding area and we are only a stone's throw away from the famous Galloway Coast and Forest. The town itself is a great centre for those with leisure time to spend and would be an ideal location for bringing up a family. Stranraer is the closest UK port to Ireland with regular daily sailings which only take a couple of hours, or the busy town of Ayr is just over an hour away.

Salary & benefits package

Salary will be dependent on experience and people of varying levels will be considered from newly qualified to lead optometrists.

The bene?ts package on offer re?ects the commitment the practice makes in rewarding staff for their hard work. Successful candidates can expect private medical and dental care (including family cover), 30 days holiday a year, all professional fees paid and excellent developmental opportunities.

Relocation package available:

For those of you who are looking to escape city life of simply fancy a change, we would love to support you with this. Please mention this in your application and we will be pleased to explain how we can support you with your move.
