Experience level: You must be a GOC registered Optometrist
Specsavers in Chester-le-Street are looking to expand their experienced clinical team with an optometrist who matches their values. The clinical team across their Chester-le-Street and Stanley teams currently include 3 optometrists, a contact lens optician, a trainee contact lens optician and a dispensing optician. There is an abundance of knowledge in the store and support to make sure you can focus on what you do best. A lot of the team are home grown, creating a friendly and experience-heavy team, with a passion for progression encouraged by the directors.
Based in the historic market town of Chester-le-Street, it is an easy commute from Newcastle, whilst also being only 30 minutes from the coast or the countryside. There is plenty to keep you busy during or out of working hours. This is something the directors understand, which is why flexibility is key to making their stores work. Ross and Jill know that life can get in the way of working conventional hours, or you may have a passionate hobby that you wish to spend more time working on, which is why they are open to discussion on a working pattern that suits your lifestyle best.
