Working hours: Full time - 40 hours (Weekend work is essential)

 

Experience level: Must have current optical experience.

 

Join our team and you’ll discover why at Specsavers, we pride ourselves on providing the foundation for exciting, long-term careers – a home where your previous optical expertise will be truly valued and where you’ll be given the opportunity to thrive. With a business that’s constantly expanding, both in the UK and abroad, the opportunities to expand your knowledge base and develop a career have never looked better. 

 

As a Laboratory Technician/ Optical Assistant, you’ll be able to enjoy the benefits of a dual role; In the lab you'll be preparing customer prescriptions to the highest standards and using the latest computer-controlled equipment. It’s all about providing an excellent single vision glazing service that helps the store to maximise sales and profitability. One day you could be repairing spectacles, the next, you could be glazing and tinting single vision lenses. And on the shop floor, you’ll make sure every customer gets a great experience when they come into our store. It means listening to what they want, explaining our offers and products, and dispensing single vision, bifocal and varifocal lenses. You’ll work to NHS guidelines (as well as our own high standards), give good, clear advice and make a positive impression, thanks to your polite and professional approach. The important thing is that you’ll be learning all the time – building on your knowledge with the help of your expert colleagues.

 

This is a fantastic opportunity for either a Lab Tech or an Optical Assistant to be trained in both disciplines. Working between both lab and the shop floor. 

 

To secure this role you will need previous experience as either an Optical Assistant or Optical Lab Technician and have a real passion for providing fantastic customer care.

We’ll continue to develop and expand your knowledge of vision problems, eyecare and our products. You’ve already demonstrated that you’re a natural when it comes to customer care, you’re articulate, good with people with an organised approach and always happy to help, so you’ll fit right in as a valuable member of our friendly store team, joining a business that’s going places.
