THE OPPORTUNITY

We are looking for an energetic, style-conscious, and personable  Optometric & Optical Sales Assistant to join our team. This can be either a Part-Time or Full-Time opportunity for the right candidate.

In this dynamic role, you will be a face of our practice—seamlessly blending top-tier customer service with optical frame styling and sales.

  •   First Impressions: Greet patients with genuine warmth as they enter our clinic, establishing an inviting, high-end boutique feel.
  •   Relationship Building: Get to know returning patients and families, creating a loyal patient base through attentive, empathetic care.
  •   Service Mindset: Address inquiries, manage patient concerns gracefully, and go above and beyond to deliver an unforgettable patient journey.

Optometric Clinical Support

  •   Pre-Testing: Perform preliminary diagnostic tests (autorefraction, tonometer, retinal imaging) with care and professionalism before the patient sees the optometrist.
  •   Contact Lens Support: Assist patients with contact lens insertions, removals, and care instructions.
  •   Practice Operations: Manage appointment scheduling, patient intake, frame inventory maintenance, and maintain a pristine, pristine optical showroom display.

WHAT YOU BRING

  •   Experience: Background in optical sales, luxury retail, high-end customer service, or optometric assisting is a plus. We will be happy to provide Optometric Assistant training to the right individual.
  •   Sales & Style Savvy: A keen eye for fashion, current frame trends, and a natural ability to connect features to benefits for optical sales.
  •   Exceptional Communication: Outstanding interpersonal skills with a warm, professional tone that effortlessly puts patients at ease.
  •   Attention to Detail: Precision in taking measurements, processing orders, and recording patient information accurately.
  •   Tech-Comfort: Comfortable learning diagnostic equipment and practice management software.
  •   Team Mindset: A positive, collaborative attitude that contributes to a joyful, high-performing clinic culture.
  • Initiative: Having the foresight to keep 1 step ahead! - anticipating patient needs & navigating potential issues before they occur, keeping the clinical day running smoothly.

WHY JOIN US?

  •   Environment: Work every day in a stylish, beautifully lit, modern facility with the latest technology.
  •   Perks & Benefits: Competitive compensation package, generous employee & family eyewear discounts, healthcare coverage and paid vacation available.
  •   Growth: Opportunities for ongoing training, optical education, and professional development.
  •   Culture: A supportive, tight-knit team where your ideas are valued and exceptional service is celebrated.
