About us
Build a real career in optical dispensing. If you appreciate quality craftsmanship and beautifully made eyewear, we'd love to speak to you. Step into the world of optics where you blend the arts and craftsmanship of eyewear with the technicalities of optical dispensing. Optical dispensing experience is desired but not required for the right candidate. If you have luxury retail experience you could be a great fit for boutique optical dispensing.
I Look Optique is an independent optometry practice on the Isle of Capri, Surfers Paradise. Our frame collections are from around the world; chosen for quality, craftsmanship, and the story behind it. We run a considered clinic, not a volume clinic, taking the time so we can uphold the highest standards in patient care.
The role
We need a full-time optical dispenser, or sales associate with the opportunity to train in optical dispensing. You will be the first person a patient sees and the person they engage with from booking to pick-up. The work is a mix of front-of-house (appointments, phone, health fund claiming), optical dispensing, and supporting the optometrist with pre-testing and imaging. There is also room to contribute to frame buying, merchandising, and the way the practice runs day to day.
Hours
Full-time. The position is for 4 weekdays plus Saturday. No late nights
What we are looking for
The fit matters more than the paperwork. These are the things we care about:
- Warm and present with patients.
- Proactive. You see what needs doing and do it.
- Accurate. Details oriented, especially optical measurements, claims, and follow-through.
- Interested in beautiful eyewear and willing to learn the product in depth.
Optical dispensing experience or Certificate IV in Optical Dispensing is a plus but not required. We will invest in your training for the right candidate.
For candidates without optical dispensing experience, a minimum of one year of premium retail experience required.
Australian citizenship is required for this position.
