Optometrist - Independent Practice

Full-Time Initially 4 Days Per Week Up to £75,000 Basic Salary

At Inspired Recruitment Group, we understand that exploring a new job opportunity can feel like a big step. That's why we approach every conversation with care, confidentiality, and absolutely no pressure. If you're an experienced Optometrist looking for a fresh start in a supportive, well-established practice, we're here to help you take that step at your own pace.

Inspired Recruitment Group is delighted to be working with a highly respected independent optical practice seeking an experienced Optometrist to join their friendly and professional team.

This is a fantastic opportunity to work within a completely private environment where patient care always comes first. With generous testing times, state-of-the-art equipment, and complete clinical freedom, you'll have everything you need to provide the highest standard of eye care without the pressures often found in volume-driven practices.

About the Practice

This long-established independent practice has built an outstanding reputation for exceptional patient care and clinical excellence. With a loyal and affluent patient base, the focus is firmly on delivering a premium experience through personalised care, advanced technology, and high-quality optical products.

The Role

  • Initially 4 days per week, progressing to full-time
  • Core working days are Monday, Friday, and alternate Saturdays, with flexibility on the remaining day(s)
  • 45-minute testing times as standard
  • Fully private patient base with no NHS work
  • Supported by an experienced Dispensing Optician and Contact Lens Optician
  • Three fully equipped consulting rooms, including a dedicated contact lens clinic
  • Modern, high-specification clinical equipment
  • Excellent clinical freedom with a genuine emphasis on patient care rather than sales targets

What We're Looking For

To be considered for this opportunity you will need:

  • Fully qualified and GOC registered Optometrist
  • Previous experience working as an Optometrist
  • Confident providing exceptional clinical care within a private practice environment
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
  • A genuine passion for delivering outstanding patient experiences

Please note that this position is not suitable for newly qualified Optometrists.

Salary & Benefits

  • Up to £75,000 basic salary (depending on experience)
  • GOC fees paid
  • AOP membership paid
  • 28 days annual leave
  • Additional Christmas and New Year closure, separate from your holiday entitlement
  • Long-term permanent opportunity with excellent career stability
  • Supportive and experienced clinical team
  • Relaxed working environment focused on quality patient care

Whether you're actively job hunting or just quietly curious about what else is out there, we're here for a confidential, no-obligation chat. We treat every conversation with respect and honesty-and we're with you every step of the way if you decide to move forward.

What happens next?

Once you have applied, one of the experienced team at Inspired Selections will give you a call to discuss the role in more detail.

They will also go over your previous experience from your CV and your current situation to make sure you have the relevant experience and match what the client is looking for.

Once this has been discussed, leave it to us and we will arrange the meeting for you.
