  • Maintain accurate records and documentation
  • Support patients with eyewear pickups and basic optical education
  • Assist with contact lens-related tasks as required
  • Help maintain a clean, organized, and professional optical environment
  • Support front desk and patient care operations as needed

Qualifications

  • Previous experience in an optical, retail, or healthcare setting is preferred but willing to train the right candidate
  • Knowledge of optical dispensing and lens products is considered an asset
  • Experience with VisualEyes software is an asset
  • Strong attention to detail and organizational skills
  • Excellent communication and customer service abilities
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative team
  • Comfortable learning technical optical processes and procedures
  • New Optician graduates are encouraged to apply

What We Offer

  • Competitive compensation
  • Comprehensive benefits package, including:
    • Extended health and dental coverage
    • Life and disability insurance
    • Employee Assistance Program
    • Vision care benefits
    • Paid time off
    • Store discounts
    • Company events
  • Supportive and collaborative team environment
  • Opportunities for professional growth and development within the optical industry
  • On-site parking

Applicants must be able to reliably commute to Kingston or plan to relocate prior to starting employment.
