This is a single-testing practice with a loyal, long-standing patient base, offering generous 35-minute appointments and a considered approach to eyecare. The role has been created to allow the experienced Optometrist Owner to step back from the consulting room and focus on growing the business further, meaning you'll be trusted, supported, and given real clinical autonomy.

Equipment and services include:

OCT

Your responsibilities will include:

Conducting comprehensive eye examinations with 35-minute testing times
Managing a variety of clinical cases, including children and specialist needs
Supporting and developing the contact lens side of the business
Working closely with the wider team across the full patient journey
Contributing ideas and insight to support the ongoing growth of the practice

Is GOC-registered
Truly embodies independent values and patient-first care
Enjoys clinical variety and taking time with patients
Values continuity of care and community-based practice
Is looking for part-time work with excellent work-life balance
