Job Description

Key responsibilities:



At Specsavers, we’re always looking to the future. Which is where people like you come in. Our apprenticeship scheme gives you the chance to really set yourself up for a great career in a fantastic company, and earn a full-time wage at the same time.



We say company, but when you join us you’ll actually become part of a family.



This apprenticeship opportunity will give you the chance to spend 10-12 months building the skills and confidence that come with training in a paid full-time job, all the time surrounded by a friendly, highly-experienced team who will support you every step of the way.  The apprenticeship duration is 13 months to allow time to apply and check your skills, knowledge and behaviour.




  • Earn a salary whilst learning new skills

  • Structured career opportunities for the future

  • Get experience of full time work and enjoy paid holidays

  • Work for a friendly employer who values you

  • Receive comprehensive and structured training

  • Learn transferable as well as job-specific skills



And that’s just the start. With a highly respected and award-winning business behind you – one that invests in its people – there’s nothing to stop you getting on here. Who knows, you might even end up running your own store in years to come.



Day-to-day, you’ll help us out:




  • By giving customers top-notch advice (as well as a warm welcome to the store)

  • Booking in eye tests

  • Pre-screening patients and measuring frames

  • You’ll also make sure everything runs as smoothly as possible by looking out for any little problems that crop up



Your on-the-job training will sit alongside structured learning and off the job learning that will lead to you becoming a fully qualified Optical Assistant. But we’re just as happy to learn from you too, so a head full of ideas will come in handy and could make a real difference to how we do things right across the business.
