Specsavers
Are you a proactive, people-focused individual who loves helping customers and creating great in-store experiences? If you have previous optical or contact lens experience and want to take the next step in your career, this Contact Lens Manager role at Specsavers could be the perfect fit.
In this role, you'll support the smooth and efficient running of our Contact Lens department.
