  • Support with CPD
  • Small community focused store, operating much like an Independent
  • 2 test rooms with plans to expand
  • A small, community based team with a loyal local customer base

 

As we are a small team led by experienced partners, this is an excellent opportunity for someone who is looking to take the next step in their career. Whether it is higher qualifications you are interested in, you want to learn more about the day-to-day running of a business or you are interested in owning your own store one day, we are happy to support you every step of the way!

We do need you to have a few skills to get started in this role. Firstly, you’ll need to be registered as a member of the General Optical Council (keeping this up to date). You’ll also need to be confident and passionate about providing the best customer service and work well as part of a team.
