The business has nearly 1,500 stores across 12 countries – and is still growing. We want you to be part of this outstanding success story.

We see big things ahead. Penrith is an affluent place and close to the M6 motorway and with great transport links with a bus station and train station.  Penrith is a market town in the county of Cumbria an amazing place to live and work. Situated on a square with a good array of shops. The store itself is a medium size store with 3 test rooms and a very friendly feel.

As a Dispensing/Contact Lens Optician, you’ll use your skills to give customers an ophthalmic dispensing service of the highest clinical standards.
