Optical Assistant – Picton Eyecare

Part-time | Monday, Thursday & Saturday

If you’re naturally positive with people, have an eye for style and enjoy creating a great customer experience, you don’t need optical experience to find your place at Picton Eyecare.

We’re looking for a friendly and capable Optical Assistant to join our independent practice three days a week. You might already have optical experience, or you could be coming from retail, customer service, reception or another people-focused role and be ready to learn something new.

Why Picton Eyecare?

- Three regular days - Monday, Thursday and Saturday No late nights, Sundays or public holidays
- Work within a small team in an independent practice
- A patient-first environment where good service matters
- Off-street parking
- Optical training provided for the right person

What will your day look like?

You’ll be one of the friendly faces our patients get to know, helping make their experience easy and enjoyable from the moment they walk through the door.

Your day will include:

- Welcoming patients and assisting with enquiries
- Helping people choose frames that suit their style, needs and budget




- Managing appointments and general practice administration
- Assisting with retail sales and eyewear collections
- Learning about lenses, prescriptions, measurements and optical processes
- Supporting the optometrist and team with the day-to-day running of the practice

What are we looking for?

You don’t need to be an Optical Dispenser to apply. Previous optical experience or a Certificate IV in Optical Dispensing would certainly be valued, but it isn’t essential.

More importantly, we’re looking for someone who brings:

- Strong customer service and communication skills
- Great attention to detail
- A friendly, reliable and confident approach
- An interest in fashion, eyewear and helping people find the right solution
- Confidence using computers and learning new systems
- A willingness to learn the optical side of the role

An interest in or knowledge of social media would also be a bonus.

If you’re ready to turn great people skills into something a little more specialised, Picton Eyecare will teach you the optical side. Bring your customer service skills, curiosity and personality - we’ll help with the rest.
