Ready to Thrive in a Fast-Paced Optical Practice? This Chelmsford Role Could Be Your Perfect Fit
If you’re a confident Optical Assistant with strong sales instincts, here’s an opportunity that could take your career to the next level. A modern, high-volume optical practice in Chelmsford is looking for someone just like you to join their growing team.
This is your chance to work in a busy, forward-thinking environment, surrounded by a team that supports, trains, and motivates each other to achieve their best—day in and day out.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Up to £30,000 basic salary
- Full support and in-depth training
- Work in a friendly, team-driven environment
- Be part of a successful and growing practice on a bustling high street
With a large and loyal patient base, this practice is expanding fast—and they need an enthusiastic Optical Assistant to step in and contribute from day one.
What You’ll Be Doing
Your primary role will be within the dispensing team, which currently includes around 10 team members. As the practice continues to grow, you’ll be playing a crucial role in delivering top-level service and driving sales.
Expect a hands-on, varied role that includes:
- Dispensing spectacles at all levels
- Conducting pre-screening and contact lens teaches
- Advising patients on frame styling and best options
- Handling reception duties and general admin
- Contributing to the overall flow and performance of the practice
What They’re Looking For
This team is known for its supportive and collaborative culture, so being a team player is key. Here’s what will make you stand out:
- Experience in optics with solid dispensing skills
- A strong track record in sales and confidence on the shop floor
- Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-volume environment
- Flexibility to work weekends (either Saturday or Sunday)
- A friendly, approachable personality with great communication skills
What’s In It for You?
In return for your hard work and dedication, you’ll receive:
- A competitive salary up to £30,000, based on experience
- Access to a team-based bonus scheme
- Ongoing training and development opportunities
- The chance to grow with a business that values its people
- A supportive and fun work environment where your efforts are appreciated
