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.

Optical Assistants are at the forefront of delivering an exceptional customer journey and service that goes above and beyond.

What can you expect from the role?

The role of an Optical Assistant offers more responsibility and involvement than your normal retail position. As the face of Vision Express, you’re there to help customers through their journey with us – from a warm welcome, through to help with selecting the right products for their needs. You’ll get to know your customers, putting them at ease and get a real feeling of satisfaction from helping them look and feel great. The beauty of this role is that no two days are ever the same. It is up to you to bring our brand alive through providing the best customer care every step of the way. You’ll be quick to build a rapport with customers from booking their appointments, completing eye health screening and helping select the best eye care solutions for them. If you share our passion for providing the best customer journey, there is no better place to express your potential.

About you?

To be considered for the role you will need experience in retail and a passion for providing the very best customer service. Optics experience is desirable but not essential as we will provide you with excellent training from day one.

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 if you want to. Vision Express understands that employees have other commitments therefore we offer flexibility in our part time contracts to suit you.

Alongside hours to suit you 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

• Flexible benefits including health, wellbeing and lifestyle options

• Structured induction plan, including 2 days at our Store Support Centre in Nottingham If you are looking for a totally unique career, then we have the opportunity for you.

If this role sounds like a match for you, apply now!

Company

Here at Vision Express, we’re creating something special for everyone, everywhere. We create joy in vision for our colleagues and customers. With over 600 Vision Express stores, we’re also part of the leading international optical retail group GrandVision, who is part of the EssilorLuxottica group.

You might ask, what is joy in vision? Joy in vision is about making a real difference. We’re always human and we build our relationships on trust, to create relationships that last. We’re genuinely interested in our customers and let every colleague’s voice be heard.

Our people are unique and when combined, we’re stronger than ever. We’re striving, creating, and winning – together.
