Full job description

Optical Assistant / Dispensing Optician

Company: Opticare
Location: Belfast
Hours: Full-time

About the Role

Opticare is looking for an experienced Optical Assistant or Dispensing Optician to join our team in Belfast.

We are looking for someone who already has experience within the optical sector and is confident dealing with patients, frames, lenses and the day-to-day running of a busy independent practice.

Whether you are an experienced Optical Assistant or a GOC-registered Dispensing Optician, we would be interested in hearing from you.

You’ll work with high-quality products, including ZEISS lenses, alongside a wide selection of frames from leading and independent brands.

Opticare also works closely alongside our hearing care brand, Audiocare, one of Northern Ireland’s growing independent hearing care providers. This gives the successful candidate the opportunity to work within a wider optical and hearing healthcare environment and develop experience beyond traditional optical practice.

Key Responsibilities

Depending on your experience and qualifications, your role may include:

Assisting patients with frame selection and providing knowledgeable advice
Discussing lens options and recommending suitable products based on patients’ needs
Working with a wide range of lenses, including single vision, bifocal and varifocal designs
Taking accurate measurements, including PDs and fitting heights
Adjusting, fitting and carrying out minor repairs to spectacles
Processing and managing patient orders
Liaising with laboratories and suppliers
Providing excellent customer service throughout the patient journey
Supporting the wider Opticare team with the day-to-day running of the practice

For qualified Dispensing Opticians, the role will also include the appropriate clinical and dispensing responsibilities within your scope of practice.

Working alongside Audiocare

As part of the role, you will also work alongside our Audiocare hearing care team, helping to support the smooth running of our hearing clinics.

This may include assisting with patient enquiries, coordinating appointments and supporting audiologists with the patient journey. No previous audiology experience is required, and full training and support will be provided.

This provides an opportunity to broaden your experience within a growing independent healthcare business while maintaining optics as the core focus of your role.

What We’re Looking For

We would like to hear from candidates with previous experience in the optical sector, either as:

An experienced Optical Assistant; or
A GOC-registered Dispensing Optician

You should be:

Confident and professional when dealing with patients
Experienced in optical dispensing and/or optical retail
Friendly, organised and reliable
Comfortable working as part of a close-knit team
Focused on providing a high standard of patient care
Keen to develop your knowledge and skills

Experience working with ZEISS lenses would be beneficial but is not essential.

Salary & Benefits

A competitive salary is offered and will be dependent on experience and qualifications.

We value experience, professionalism and high-quality patient care, and the package will reflect the successful candidate’s level of experience.

Further details can be discussed at interview.

Why Join Opticare?

Opticare is an established independent opticians focused on providing a high-quality, personal service to our patients.

Working alongside our sister hearing care brand Audiocare, we offer a broader patient-care environment than a traditional optical practice, with opportunities to develop additional skills and experience.

You’ll join a friendly and experienced team, work with excellent products including ZEISS lenses, and have the opportunity to develop your role as the business continues to grow.

To Apply

Please send your CV and a brief introduction to [email protected], outlining your optical experience and why you are interested in joining Opticare.

Job Type: Full-time
