The Opportunity

A very exciting opportunity has become available for a qualified Dispensing Optician to join a well-established independent practice in the Surrey area.

This is a practice where the emphasis is firmly on quality dispensing and patient care, giving you the opportunity to build genuine relationships with patients rather than working in a high-volume environment.

You'll be joining an experienced and supportive team and will play an important role throughout the patient journey, from the initial handover through to dispensing, fitting and aftercare.

If you're looking for a role offering proper independent optics alongside a strong salary and excellent work-life balance, this could be well worth a conversation.

The Role

As the Dispensing Optician, you'll be responsible for:

• Delivering a high standard of patient care and professional dispensing
• Helping patients with frame selection and appropriate lens recommendations
• Taking accurate measurements and ensuring an excellent fit
• Managing spectacle orders and liaising with suppliers
• Carrying out quality checks, fittings and minor repairs
• Supporting and guiding Optical Assistants when required
• Providing smooth handovers between the consulting room and dispensing
• Maintaining accurate patient records
• Handling patient queries professionally and confidently
• Helping maintain attractive and well-organised frame displays

Salary & Benefits

There's a particularly strong overall package on offer:

• £33,000 - £37,000 salary DOE
• No Sundays
• No Bank Holidays
• 1 Saturday off every month
• 33 days' holiday including Bank Holidays
• Company pension
• Life assurance
• CPD and ongoing training support
• Staff and family discounts
• Incentive schemes
• Career progression opportunities
• Company sick pay
• Employee assistance programme
• Team events
• Additional company perks and benefits

For somebody who values their time outside of work, the combination of no Sundays, no Bank Holidays and a guaranteed Saturday off each month is a real benefit.

What Are They Looking For?

To be considered, you'll need to be a qualified Dispensing Optician with a Level 6 Diploma in Ophthalmic Dispensing.

We're looking for somebody who is:

• Confident with all aspects of dispensing
• Passionate about delivering excellent patient care
• Friendly, professional and approachable
• Comfortable recommending frames and lenses based on individual patient needs
• A strong communicator
• Organised with good attention to detail
• Comfortable using IT systems and maintaining patient records
• Happy supporting other members of the team
• Someone who takes genuine pride in doing the job properly

This could be particularly suited to a Dispensing Optician who enjoys the personal feel of independent optics and wants to work somewhere where quality and patient relationships remain important.
