Summary

Optical Assistant Job - North West London

Location: North West London / Domiciliary

Salary: £28,000 DOE + Bonus + Mileage

Hours: Full Time or Part Time | Monday to Friday

About the Opportunity

Zest Optical are working alongside a growing independent domiciliary eyecare provider to recruit an Optical Assistant to join their team in North West London.

Established by an experienced domiciliary Optometrist, the business has been created around a simple philosophy: delivering personal, unhurried eyecare and building genuine long-term relationships with patients.

Following a successful launch and continued growth across London and the Home Counties, they are now looking for an Optical Assistant who would enjoy stepping away from the traditional practice environment and becoming part of the business at an exciting stage of its development.

Previous domiciliary experience isn't essential, making this a great opportunity for an Optical Assistant looking for something different from the high street.

The Role

Your role will be varied and can develop around your strengths and interests, with responsibilities including:

Supporting the Optometrist during clinic days

Helping patients with frame and lens selection

Delivering completed eyewear and providing ongoing aftercare

Collecting and organising orders from the company's North West London laboratory

Building trusted, long-term relationships with patients

Managing your own schedule when completing deliveries and visits

Supporting relationships with local care homes and independent living providers

Opportunity to become involved in marketing and business development if of interest

As the company continues to grow, there will be plenty of opportunity to shape your position and take on additional responsibility.

About You

We're looking for an Optical Assistant who is personable, reliable and genuinely enjoys spending time with patients.

You'll have:

Previous Optical Assistant experience within an optical practice or domiciliary setting

A patient and personable approach

Confidence communicating with people from a wide variety of backgrounds

The ability to work independently and organise your own day

A full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle

Domiciliary experience is

not essential, with full support available for somebody moving across from a practice environment.

What's On Offer

Starting salary around

£28,000 DOE

Additional performance-related bonus

Mileage expenses

Monday to Friday working

Full or part-time opportunities considered
