About the Opportunity
This is a genuinely different kind of Dispensing Optician role.
You'll be joining a family-run, domiciliary optician that delivers high-quality eye care directly to patients in a care home setting. The focus here is on time, relationships and meaningful care - not targets or conveyor-belt dispensing.
If you enjoy variety, autonomy and meeting people from all walks of life, this role offers a refreshing alternative to traditional practice-based work.
The Role
Your week will be deliberately split to give you balance and variety:
- Out in the field:
Accompanying the Optometrist on care-home visits, supporting patients with frame selection, dispensing advice and personalised recommendations. - Office-based days:
Coordinating lens and frame orders, liaising with suppliers, updating families on progress and ensuring every dispense is delivered accurately, smoothly and on time.
You'll play a key role in ensuring continuity of care from consultation through to delivery and aftercare.
