Now, we're looking for the right optician to join us, learn the business inside and out, and eventually take the reins as the next owner. The Impact You'll Make This is more than a job — it's a career-defining opportunity. You'll be the face of our store, delivering exceptional optical care while learning the operational, financial, and customer service skills needed to run a thriving retail business.

Manage inventory, supplier relationships, and product ordering. Oversee daily store operations, ensuring a welcoming and professional environment.

What You'll Bring Licensed or certified optician (or equivalent experience in optical retail). A passion for customer care and a keen eye for style and detail. Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities. A genuine interest in entrepreneurship and long-term business growth. Integrity, reliability, and a commitment to excellence. Why This Role is Different Clear Path to Ownership - A structured opportunity to purchase the business within 2-3 years.
