Specsavers in Whitby are looking for a confident and knowledgeable Optometrist to become their next Optometry Director. They have a clear-sighted vision to transform eye health in their community – but need your support. You’ll have access to the very best clinical technology and will receive unrivalled professional development. To help you to succeed, you’ll also receive ongoing support from the existing retail partner and our leading global brand. At Specsavers in Whitby you’ll have the opportunity to provide a first-class experience to every patient in addition to receiving an excellent package and the opportunity to build an investment for your future.
What’s on Offer?
About the store
The Whitby store is located in a prime location in the town centre, opposite the picturesque harbour. There are 3 optical test rooms and 1 of these is used as a dual room for hearcare and CL clinics. They offer enhanced clinical services such as MECS, GRR, hypertension screening and post cataract care. A close-knit team of 13 colleagues call this store home including 2 optoms, a CLO/DO, a manager and assistant manager.
Whitby is a small but growing town, situated in the North Yorkshire Moors national park, close to Scarborough, Middlesborough and York. There are good local schools within the area and many new estates currently being built. The town has a laid-back feel which attracts people moving in from other areas. It’s a popular seaside resort and the store has a lot of returning customers who visit when coming to their second homes or are on holiday in Whitby. There are excellent transport links with a railway and bus station just a 5 minute walk from the store plus there’s lots of parking in the town centre with disabled spaces opposite the shop.
Requirements of the role
Alongside being a qualified and GOC registered Optometrist, you’ll need to share the store’s ethos. They’re looking for someone who wants to grow and develop the team, offer exceptional customer care and improve patient outcomes. You’ll be a practitioner who prides themselves on their clinical judgment, isn’t afraid of a hands-on approach, and someone who is keen to get involved and build a rapport with their team. In summary, you’ll be a highly skilled Optometry professional willing and able to help drive the practice forward.
About Joint Venture Partnership
Joint venture partnership is the secret to our success here at Specsavers, with every store locally owned and led by its directors. Owning, leading and growing your very own business is considered by many to be the pinnacle of your career as an Optometrist. We believe that professional optics should be led by opticians just like you – this is your chance to become the leader you were born to be.
