Specsavers in Crosby are looking for a motivated and driven Optometrist to become their new Optometry Director and Store Partner. If you are looking for an investment for your future and more financial security, an incredible opportunity awaits. You'll receive an excellent regular salary, alongside attractive benefits, plus a share in business profits.
To help you succeed, you'll receive ongoing support from the existing partners and leading global brand. You'll also have access to the very best clinical technology and will receive unrivalled professional development.
Specsavers Crosby first opened its doors in 2016 on the main high street and has become a solid part of the community within that time. The partnership consists of a long‑standing retail partner who has been in place for the past 13 years. The business had a full refit and IT update in 2024 and is looking fantastic, now being able to operate with three sight test rooms, one dedicated audiology room, and one dual‑function room used for wax removal and sight tests. All benefit from the latest equipment, so you can perform state‑of‑the‑art testing and provide the very best in clinical excellence for each patient. The existing partners have worked hard to build strong, long‑lasting relationships in the local community and work closely with both the hospitals and private clinics in the area. All enhanced services are offered, and the new incoming optometrist partner will need to be equally passionate about the community connections that have been built.
You will find a long‑standing team of over 20 colleagues, including a store manager, a team of optical and hearing assistants, plus a pre‑registration and optometrists.

Requirements of the Role
