    • Building great relationships with patients and colleagues
    • Supporting the smooth running of the practice and keeping displays and equipment looking their best

    You don’t need previous optical experience; we’re happy to consider someone with strong customer service or administration experience who is friendly, organised and keen to learn.

    You’ll be someone who:

    • Loves working with people
    • Has great attention to detail
    • Takes pride in providing excellent service
    • Is confident, reliable and a team player
    • Has a genuine interest in learning and developing within optics
