Bath is home to an array of eateries, a great shopping centre, fascinating museums, as well as being able to explore nearby sites like the photogenic villages of Lacock, Castle Comb and Stonehenge’s mysterious megaliths. You can also socialise in chic cocktail bars and welcoming traditional pubs, then dip into a rich evening scene that embraces comedy, live music and theatre. For the nature lovers, you can relax in natural hot springs or take a stroll in the beautiful parks and gardens in Bath.

What We’d Love To See

Alongside being a qualified and GOC registered Dispensing Optician, we are searching for someone who shares our store’s ethos. Someone who wants to grow, develop and offer exceptional customer care along the way. We want a practitioner who prides themselves on their clinical judgment, that isn’t afraid of a hands-on approach and who is keen to get involved and build rapport with the rest of the team. In summary, we’re looking for a skilled Dispensing Optician to join us, be part of the team and assist in driving our practice forward.
