Work in a busy, fast-paced production lab environment with full training provided!
Become a qualified Optical Technician in just 15-18 months – and get paid while you’re at it. This role is based in the Lab in store and not on the shop floor.
At Specsavers, 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 while surrounded by our friendly, passionate, and highly experienced team who’ll support you every step of the way.
Benefits:
– Earn a salary – paid monthly
– Structured career opportunities for the future
– Experience 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
Responsibilities:
Day-to-day, you’ll help us by producing customer orders, interpreting optical prescriptions, correcting faults, re-assembling glasses, carrying out testing and adjustments, and maintaining materials and equipment. You’ll ensure you produce the highest quality assured product.
Your on-the-job training will be complemented by structured learning, and at the end of the 15-18 months, you’ll be a fully-fledged Level 3 Optical Technician.
Requirements:
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, but you will need the organization, commitment, motivation, and enthusiasm to deliver the great product our Specsavers visitors love.
Before applying, please check that you are able to travel to the store location on a daily basis.
This vacancy will close once we have filled all available places, so we recommend early applications.
