Need To Know Looking for a resident optometrist to join our lovely Kirkcaldy practice. Situated in this small coastal town in Fife this is a brilliant opportunity for local clinicians or those interested in relocating. The store offers a small, skilled team who know their longstanding patients on a first name basis. The store is also part of a wider network of stores that all support each other and work towards the same goals. We are closed on Sundays so from a weekend working perspective we would only be looking for Saturdays. We are looking for a colleague that is keen to grow the business, has patient care at the forefront of all decision making and a desire to see the store hit plan For further information please contact Alex Newton on 07815 010 102 or alex.newton1boots.co.uk Keywords Optometry, Optometrist, Optom, Optician, Clinical, Glasses, Healthcare, Health, clinician, GOC, Optom jobs, Optical Jobs,
