The Practice
This is a modern, independent practice offering a premium service with advanced clinical capabilities, including OCT, retinal imaging, corneal topography, and myopia management.
You’ll be working with a team that genuinely cares about doing things properly — no conveyor belt, no corner cutting. Just good, honest optics done the right way.
They’ve also curated a strong selection of luxury eyewear , so if you enjoy working with quality products and styling patients properly, you’ll feel right at home.
Salary & Benefits
- Salary up to £28,000 depending on experience
- 28 days holiday including bank holidays
- Supportive, non-corporate working environment
- Opportunity to take ownership and contribute ideas
- Work alongside an experienced, friendly team
- A practice that values quality over quick wins
Who They’re Looking For
- An experienced Optical Assistant who knows their craft
- Reliable, organised, and professional in their approach
- Someone who’s happy to roll their sleeves up and get stuck in
- Calm, patient, and confident when dealing with all types of patients
- Proactive by nature — not someone who waits to be told what to do
- Proud of what they do and keen to keep improving
