Licensed Optician Opportunity at Specsavers

At Specsavers, we know the value and expertise that a licensed optician brings to patient care. Eye health is our top priority, which is why OCT scans are now a standard part of pre-testing for every patient. We also put our customers first by offering top-quality products and prioritizing fast turnaround times, ensuring glasses get into our customers' hands as quickly as possible.

As we continue our ambitious growth—opening 200 stores across Canada in just two years—we recognize the importance of having licensed opticians on the floor at all times. That's why we need your optical expertise.

Your Role as a Licensed Optician

You chose this profession because you care about helping people see better and live better. In this role, you'll ensure every customer leaves with an eyecare plan tailored to their needs.

We rely on our dispensing teams to:

  • Interpret prescriptions accurately
  • Advise customers on the most suitable lens and frame options
  • Ensure a perfect fit for every pair of glasses

Our mission is to elevate the role of opticians by giving you the tools, technology, and support you need to do what you love—providing quality eyecare and eyewear to every customer.

What We Offer You

Product Excellence:

Our lenses are developed using the latest clinical technology, rigorous testing, and thorough quality assurance. You'll have a complete range of top-quality products you'll be proud to offer.

Clinical Excellence:

Your clinical expertise is at the heart of our care model. We place contact lens practitioners at the centre of contact lens dispensing and provide access to leading technology—OCT for every patient—to deliver high-quality, accessible eyecare.

Support:

We empower opticians to work to the full scope of their qualifications while encouraging career growth.

Professional Development:

You'll mentor student opticians and retail team members, helping to raise service standards while contributing to the professional development of others.

Why Join Specsavers as an Optician?

  • Be part of a company that values opticians as a core pillar of our business, alongside optometry.
  • Continuous investment in your professional development: annual stipend for industry events, opticianry training programs, and support for your Continuing Competence/Quality Assurance requirements.
  • In select locations, we cover 100% of your OAC membership and license renewal fees.
  • Opportunity to set benchmarks in patient care, build long-term trust, and grow your clinic through referrals.
  • Competitive benefits: extended health coverage, EAP, 3 weeks' vacation, 6 sick days (PT & FT), 1 paid volunteer day per year, and your birthday off.
  • Two free pairs of glasses per year, plus discounts on additional products.
  • Access to the latest clinical technology, advanced training, and the chance to join us at the early stages of our journey in Canada—positioning yourself for future opportunities and potential ownership.

What We're Looking For

  • Licensed/registered optician with a valid Dispensing Optician and/or Contact Lens Fitter License in your province.
  • Passion for eyecare and a strong commitment to delivering exceptional customer experiences and outstanding patient care.

If you want to make a meaningful difference in patients' lives while working with cutting-edge technology in a supportive and forward-thinking environment, Specsavers is the place for you.
