Job Overview

Here at Vision Express we're committed to nurturing and developing talent in all areas of our business. In particular we have a great focus on Optometrists and our Pre-registration programme plays a key part in helping us develop talented Optometrists for the future.

We're looking for people who are passionate about building relationships with our customers helping them look and feel great whilst ensuring they receive a genuine caring service.

This is a must for all our people and with this in mind we pay particular care and attention to the selection and development of our Pre-registration Optometrists.

Your Pre-registration placement is going to be tough. You'll have to juggle study whilst working full time. We will obviously support you every step of the way providing you with centrally developed and delivered training and support to include: a comprehensive induction programme, revision courses, regional practical training and career options upon qualification. However, the emphasis is very much on you to do the work to achieve your ultimate goal of becoming a qualified Optometrist.

What can you benefit from if you undertake a placement here at Vision Express?

* Highly supportive Pre-reg Supervisors and Managers to make sure you get the range of experience you need

*A highly trained support team in each store

* The latest equipment and a highly professional working environment

* Busy stores and a diverse customer base

* Professional Development Tutor

* Secondment to eye hospital

* Support from dedicated Professional Learning and Development and Professional Services teams

You'll quickly see how hard we work to create a welcoming environment for our customers. And that warm welcome also extends to you.

In order to be considered for a Pre-registration placement with Vision Express you must be studying towards a degree in Optometry.

You'll also:

* Demonstrate a real passion for providing excellent and consistent customer service

* Communicate in a professional and friendly manner

* Demonstrate a positive attitude everyday

* Display patience, honesty and empathy towards others

* Have the ability to work within a team as well as being self-motivated

Anyone can offer a Pre-registration placement but not everyone offers a programme like us.

If you’re looking for the best support network and training for your Pre-registration placement, there’s no better place to express your potential.

The deadline for applications is Friday 5th February 2021.

Following your application, you will be invited to a virtual interview. These will be held weekdays between 9am and 5pm during February and March.

Store interviews will be held from April onwards.
