Full job description

We are a true independent practice with a loyal patient base, an exceptional reputation, and a passion for doing things to a high standard. We are looking for an experienced, detail-driven senior optical dispenser who takes pride in delivering outstanding, personalised patient care.

The Role

This is not a volume-driven environment. You will have:

60-minute dispensing appointments
30-minute collection & adjustment appointments
Your own dispensing diary
Close 1:1 collaboration with our Optometrists
The opportunity to see patients from initial dispense through to final adjustments

Clinical & Technical Expertise Required

You must be confident and experienced in:

All aspects of dispensing:
Single vision, bifocals & multifocals
Occupational lenses
High prescriptions & complex cases
Frame fitting with meticulous attention to detail
Understanding patient tolerance levels and troubleshooting adaptation issues
Accurate and compliant record keeping

Creative & Commercial Involvement

This is a role for someone who wants influence and help drive our expanding practice forward

You will have the opportunity to:

Collaborate directly with premium eyewear brands
Help hand-pick and curate our frame collections
Get creative with stock management and inventory strategy
Introduce new lens technologies and product ideas
Contribute to business development and service improvements

The Environment

Calm, organised, and highly professional
Friendly, collaborative team culture
Broad multidisciplinary approach, including behavioural optometry
Loyal, long-standing patient relationships
True independent practice ethos

We value empathy, emotional intelligence, and the ability to reassure and guide patients who may feel overwhelmed or uncertain. A can do, positive mind set is essential.

What We’re Looking For

You are:

Technically strong and clinically confident
Meticulous with detail and accuracy
Organised and efficient
A clear communicator with patients, colleagues, and suppliers
Passionate about delivering exceptional outcomes

Most importantly, you care deeply about getting it right.

What We Offer

Freedom to dispense what is genuinely best for each patient
No Sundays or Bank Holidays
No requirement to work every weekend
Work-life balance genuinely respected
1 complimentary pair of glasses per year
Social events & occasional work trips
A supportive team that values your input
Opportunity to shape the future of the practice

If you are an experienced dispensing professional who wants autonomy, creativity, and the chance to work in a high-quality independent setting, we would love to hear from you.

Job Types: Full-time, Part-time

Pay: £26,000.00-£35,000.00 per year

Work Location: In person
