Job Overview

At Vision Express, we are committed to providing our customers with outstanding service delivered by outstanding people. Across every role in our stores, everyone has a key part to play.

We have an exciting opportunity for a GOC/CORU registered Optometrist to join our store. The focus here is taking time to get things right from the warmth of the welcome, to the thoroughness of the eye examination. Being at the heart of the store, you’ll be a key ambassador for the business, so you’ll need to be at ease with engaging with people.

What can you expect from the role?

You’ll spend most of your day engaging with our customers, testing eyes, fitting contact lenses and delivering the standards of service and expertise that sets us apart. You’ll be a key part of the handover to the retail team, making the best recommendations for our customer’s needs.

However, you’ll see more than just the examination room. As a key part of our business, you’ll work closely with your store manager to build a successful team to deliver an unrivalled customer experience. This means always encouraging the best practice and the highest standards, with the team around you supporting you every step of the way.

You can expect a busy but highly professional culture where everyone’s working towards the same goal: providing a truly expert and individual service for every customer, leaving them looking and feeling great.

If you share our passion for providing the best customer journey and are looking for your next step, our structured training and development opportunities won’t disappoint you. There is no better place to express your potential.

What will we provide you?

One thing is for sure, you’ll find a rewarding, customer focussed culture with excellent training and opportunities to develop your career down your chosen path, whether that be professionally or into management.

And, if you have other commitments but are looking for a rewarding career, our part time contracts offer flexibility to suit you.

Alongside our career development programmes and a competitive salary, you will also receive:

• Up to 38 days’ paid leave (dependent on length of service)

• Free eyewear and generous discounts for you, your family and friends

• Healthcare for you and your family

• Company pension scheme

• Flexible benefits including health, wellbeing and lifestyle options

• Structured induction plan, including time at our Store Support Centre in Nottingham

If you are looking for a totally unique career, then we have the opportunity for you!
