Job Details

Job Overview

Here, you'll produce spectacles in our in-store laboratories. Each one has state of the art equipment, and we’ll train you to cut and fit lenses into frames. It can often be hard work and a high level of manual dexterity is required, but the rewards and satisfaction are high.

Our Laboratory Production Technicians use precision tools and machinery to make spectacles for customers - sometimes to short deadlines.

You’ll work closely with both the professional and store support teams to ensure we exceed expectations creating spectacles to the very highest quality standards for customers. You’ll also enjoy engaging and conversing with customers and take great pride in the lab equipment, helping make sure it’s well maintained.

It’s important that you enjoy doing a job where routine tasks are a daily requirement but who takes delight from knowing the job you do makes a real difference to someone’s life. As you’d expect there’s a great deal of attention to detail in this role, working with small parts and highly advanced technology. You’ll also be a lens expert in store providing advice and guidance to your team and customers.

Ideally we’re looking for some previous experience in optics but don’t worry if you don’t have experience, we’ll support you every step of the way with all the training and development you need to become an expert.

So what do you need?

• A passion for providing the very best in customer care

• To work well with others to create a successful team

• An interest in technical work and be good with your hands

• A real eye for detail

• Enthusiasm and a willingness to learn

• Good communication skills

If you’re looking to enhance your career or make a change, this could be just the right opportunity for you.
