About the practice

About the role

Full-Time Optometrist | Clinical excellence & 30-min testing 

Location: Rose Opticians, Gants Hill (IG2) 
Role: Full-time elevate your clinical career at Rose Opticians 

Are you tired of the "conveyor belt" approach to optometry? At Rose Opticians in Gants Hill, we believe that providing exceptional eye care requires two things: time and technology. We are looking for a passionate, clinically-driven Optometrist to join our friendly, professional team. If you have a keen interest in MECS, Myopia Management, and Orthokeratology, you will find a home here where those skills are truly utilised and valued. 

Why join us?

  • 30-Minute testing times - We prioritise quality over quantity. You’ll have the time needed to build patient rapport and conduct thorough examinations. 
  • Advanced clinical suite - Work with the best tools in the industry, including OCT, Fundus Imaging, and Auto-Refraction. 
  • Full technician support - Focus on what you do best. Our skilled support team handles the fields, OCT scans, and pre-screening, so you can focus on the clinical outcome. 
  • Specialist services - We are active in MECS and are a hub for Myopia Management and Ortho-K—perfect for an optometrist looking to diversify their day. 
  • Prime location - Based in the heart of Gants Hill, we are just steps away from the Central Line, making for an easy commute from across London or Essex. 

What we are looking for

A GOC-registered Optometrist (open to all levels of experience, provided you have a clinical mindset). Someone who enjoys a collaborative team environment. An interest (or willingness to train) in Myopia Management and Ortho-K. MECS accreditation is a plus, but we will support the right candidate in obtaining it. 

Benefits

  • Competitive salary (negotiable based on experience)
  • Professional fees covered (GOC & AOP)
  • Continuous professional development and clinical mentorship
  • A supportive, independent work environment where your voice is heard.
