I have just taken on a vacancy for an experienced Optical Assistant who would work between two practices within easy commute of each other within a small group who have been established for over 100 years.

These practices are all modern and air-conditioned with cutting-edge computerised equipment. Many of the branches have high-tech Smart Mirrors which will allow you to compare how you look in up to four frames simultaneously!

They have a huge choice of frames with up to 1000 different styles in some branches and their independent status means they have frames and lenses available from many different manufacturers all over the world.

Responsibilities of the Optical Assistant

This a front-of-house retail sales position. You will be meeting and greeting customers coming into the store, booking appointments, helping customers to choose the best frame for their needs, dispensing spectacles and ultimately making sales.
You will be on hand to help with initial clinical tests and offer advice to customers on how to care for and use their contact lenses.
Additional admin reception and merchandising will also be a part of the role.

Requirements of the Optical Assistant

The right candidate for this position will have full dispensing knowledge as well as having excellent customer service.
You will be a hardworking and dynamic individual who is able to make sales while always delivering the highest levels of customer care.
You will have clear personal career goals that this company can help you to achieve and you will be willing to work for them.
They strive for continuous improvement in all aspects of work and the companies employees regularly attend clinical education and training seminars for which the company recently achieved the prestigious Investors in People award.

*You must be available to work Saturday.

Compensation for the Optical Assistant

On offer is a starting salary of £18,000 – £21,000 basic + additional training and development opportunities.
