We’ve got the vision if you’ve got the drive!
Become a qualified Spectacle Technician in just 15-18 months – and get paid while you’re at it.
At Specsavers, we’re always looking to the future. Our apprenticeship scheme gives you the chance to set yourself up for a great career in a fantastic company while earning a full-time wage.
You’ll spend 15-18 months in a paid job, learning your trade alongside our friendly, passionate, and highly experienced team who’ll support you every step of the way.
– Earn a salary – Paid Monthly
– Structured career opportunities for the future
– Gain experience of full-time work…and enjoy paid holidays!
– Work for a friendly employer who values you
– Receive comprehensive and structured training
– Learn transferable as well as job-specific skills
Day-to-day, you’ll help us by producing customer orders from scratch, interpreting optical prescriptions and drawings, correcting faults and re-assembling glasses, carrying out testing and adjustments, and preparing and maintaining materials and equipment. You’ll ensure that you produce the highest quality assured product.
Your on-the-job training will sit alongside structured learning, and at the end of the 15-18 months as an apprentice, you’ll be a fully-fledged Level 3 Spectacle Maker.
You’ll need a grade 9-4 (A*-C) GCSEs in Maths (or equivalent/predicted result).
It’s not essential to have worked in the Optical sector; this is a new adventure. However, you will need the organization, commitment, motivation, and enthusiasm to deliver the great products our Specsavers visitors love. Who knows, you might even end up running your own store in the future!
