Job description
At Vision Express, we're passionate about delivering exceptional eye care and outstanding customer experiences. As an In-Store Lab Technician in our flagship Oxford Street store, you'll play a vital role in helping customers see clearly and step out with confidence by producing high-quality prescription lenses and glasses.
Working within our busy optical laboratory, you'll be responsible for manufacturing, glazing and fitting lenses to exact specifications, ensuring every pair of glasses meets the highest standards of quality and precision.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone looking to build a career in optics, whether you're an experienced Optical Lab Technician, Glazing Technician, or are looking to start your journey in the optical industry.
You'll join a fast-paced environment where attention to detail, technical accuracy and teamwork are essential. Full training and support will be provided, and previous experience in an optical lab is desirable but not essential.
Although the hours for this role are advertised, we'd love to hear about your ideal working pattern. Whether you're looking for hours around the school run, part-time hours, or a compressed working week, we're open to discussing flexible working options.
