Job Description

Job Overview

Flame Health Optometry have been instructed to recruit an experienced, passionate Optical Advisor/Optical Dispenser for a high-spec independent practice in Stockbridge, Edinburgh. This permanent, onsite role offers a salary of £25,000 to £27,000 per annum, with full or part-time hours available and no Sundays, and will suit an optometrist who values patient centred care in a quality led setting.

About the Job

You will be working in a newly refurbished clinical environment, supported by advanced diagnostic equipment and quality product ranges. The role centres on delivering careful, personalised eye care, with a clear emphasis on patient journey, trust and continuity rather than volume.

Day to day, you will be part of a friendly team that places long term relationships and aftercare at the heart of the service. The practice has a strong focus on clinical excellence, and the position will appeal to someone who enjoys combining professional standards with a thoughtful, attentive approach to patients.

About the Employer

Our client is a well regarded independent optical practice with an excellent local reputation in Edinburgh. It has invested in both its clinical environment and its patient experience, creating a setting that combines traditional service with modern diagnostic technology.

The practice is described as a community based business where people are at the centre of everything. It offers carefully sourced designer eyewear and premium lenses, and places quality of care ahead of throughput, which makes it an appealing place for someone who wants to work in a considered and professional environment.

What We Are Looking For

Our client is seeking an Optical Advisor who can contribute to a patient focused practice and who is committed to maintaining high standards of care.

The right person will be comfortable working within a supportive, independent setting and will value continued professional development. Strong communication skills and a collaborative manner will help you build lasting relationships with patients and colleagues. A genuine interest in quality led service, clinical accuracy and a strong patient experience will be important.

Who This Role Suits

This role will suit an Optical Advisor looking for a move into a respected independent practice where care and consistency matter. It is well matched to someone who wants flexibility around full or part time working and is interested in developing their career from a short, medium and long term perspective.

Job Location

The practice is based in Stockbridge, Edinburgh, an established part of the city with straightforward access to the centre and local transport links. The area has a distinct neighbourhood feel, with independent shops, cafés and a busy local character.
