Wodonga VIC, Australia Sawyer Sourcing Full time $62,400 per year

Looking for a role in a family-owned (not corporate-controlled) optical practice? Join a tight-knit team, renowned for stellar customer service and top-tier professional eyecare.

This is your chance to shine in a local optometry practice where patient vision and satisfaction are at the heart of everything they do

  • Guide patients in selecting the perfect frames and lens styles
  • Resolve customer concerns with a commitment to satisfaction
  • Open and close the practice
  • Train new staff

  • Curate sales merchandising - showcase the latest in eyewear fashion

  • Keep the practice sparkling clean and visually appealing, reflecting the commitment to quality

Say goodbye to blurry work-life balance

  • No late-night shifts - keep your evenings clear
  • No Saturday mornings - enjoy your weekends and refocus for Monday

Who we're looking for: If you have previous optical retail experience and a passion for helping patients see the world more clearly, we're eager to see your application. Familiarity with lens prescriptions, frame adjustments, or optical dispensing is a plus
