The role
Want to be the reason why people should’ve gone to Specsavers? As an Optometrist here, you’ll be the go-to for eye examinations and contact lens services, helping us keep the nation seeing 20/20.

Our store
Specsavers in Stonehaven first opened its doors in 2010. The store sits in a prime location in Market Square in the heart of the town and is firmly embedded within the local community. Stonehaven, a pretty harbour town which lies on Scotland’s northeast coast, south of Aberdeen. The town is famous for the Hogmanay Fireball festival, an ancient tradition which is celebrated each New Year’s Eve where people swing blazing balls above their heads to ward off evil spirits. Sitting just off the A90/A92, there are excellent transport links to the store with buses and a train station just over a 10-minute walk away. Our store is an accredited Platinum Employer – this means you can expect an exceptional employee experience every single day you work here. The Platinum Employer Scheme is part of the Specsavers drive to become a famous place to work. Stores with this accreditation have been verified on five key employer standards: Recruitment, Performance Management and Reward, Talent Management, Learning and Development and Employee Engagement.
