Hours - Full time 

Experience level - you will ideally have a background as a Supervisor in a clinical setting and be a qualified Contact Lens Optician

As our Contact Lens Manager in Cambridge, you’ll make sure that the store’s Contact Lens area runs like clockwork.

At Specsavers, we do everything in our power to help people like you get the career you want. Why?
