Overview

Join to apply for the Retail Optical Assistant role at Vision Express. As a Retail Optical Assistant at Vision Express, you'll assist our customers in finding and selecting eyewear that meets their needs. You'll help with frame adjustments, repairs, and fittings. Additionally, you may perform some pre-screening eye examinations and administrative tasks such as scheduling appointments, supporting the phone lines from customer queries and processing payments. Overall, your goal is to provide excellent customer service and ensure that our customers leave happy, with eyewear that fits properly and meets their vision needs. Vision Express aims to help customers "See More and Be More" by delivering tailored and effective service to maximise their visual potential and enhance their lifestyle.

Although the hours of this role are advertised, we are open to discussing flexible options. If this sounds like the role for you, we'd love to hear about your ideal working week. Whether this is hours to fit around the school run or you prefer a compressed week, we are happy to discuss flexible options further.
