At Asda, nothing is more important to us than the health and wellbeing of our customers, and we pride ourselves on providing excellent service and clinical care. Our Optical Managers are key to our success, ensuring the team has everything needed to deliver high-quality service. Our fixed price approach means no up-selling, with single vision glasses priced the same as varifocals, and no top-up costs for anti-scratch or thinner lenses, allowing us to offer transparent pricing without compromising customer solutions. You will be supported by our Home Office teams for clinical support and work alongside Area Managers to optimize your role. Regular business updates and performance feedback will be provided.
