Role: Home Visits (Domiciliary) Optical Assistant

Ready to take your skills on the road? As a home visits optical assistant at Specsavers, you can do just that.    

You’ll be driving our services to the doorsteps of the nation, providing eye care to the people who aren’t able to come into our stores. Not only do you help them with their sight, you’ll also be bringing smiles and clinical care to the heart of your community.

We can only consider candidates who have current or recent optical experience and who hold a full UK driving licence for this role and ideally you will live in the Durham or Gateshead area.

Our business

Our territory covers the North East of England.

Our team

We have a wonderful existing team of dedicated people from optical and administrative backgrounds, who are ready and waiting for you to meet them.

Our cars

You’ll be provided with a company car or car allowance

What’s on offer?

As well as all the support you need and great training and development opportunities, we have a whole load of benefits on offer for you to enjoy. These include:   

  • Salary: £26,852 per annum + bonus
  • Full time: Monday to Friday 9am-5.30pm (flexibility required) - NO weekend or Bank Holiday working will be required offering a great work/life balance
  • 28 days holiday (includes Bank Holiday)
  • Benefits include Specsavers Perks - a portal to a world of great everyday discounts and savings
  • WeCare - our employee support service to help you and your immediate family when you need it most
  • Enjoy an additional paid day off on your birthday to celebrate you!

What we’re looking for? 

If this is still sounding like a bit of you, we do need you to have a few skills to get started as a home visits optical assistant. These include:   

  • Previous optical experience (minimum 6 months-1 year) and you must be able to confidently dispense at all levels, measure and fit
  • Must have a full UK driving licence and be a confident driver

Find out more

If you’ve got all these skills, we’d love for you to apply, but there’s also some desirable experience that could set you apart from the competition if you have it.   

This includes:  

  • Previous experience in a fast-paced customer facing environment  
  • Be confident using new systems as well as tablet and / or laptop 

Checked all the boxes? Now’s the perfect time to apply!
