Reception / Optical Assistant
Eyecentric | Manuka, ACT
The first smile a patient receives often sets the tone for their entire visit.
At Eyecentric, we believe exceptional eye care begins long before an eye examination. From the moment patients walk through our doors, we aim to create an experience that is welcoming, personal and memorable.
We're looking for a friendly and organised Reception / Optical Assistant to become an important part of our team.
Whether your experience comes from healthcare, retail, hospitality or customer service, we'll provide the support and training to help you develop your skills within independent optometry.
What your day might look like
Every day brings a mix of patient care, administration and optical support. Your day may include:
-
Welcoming patients and coordinating appointments and enquiries.
-
Supporting patients with frame styling and eyewear selection.
-
Assisting with pre-testing and other clinical support (training provided).
-
Maintaining patient records and completing administration tasks.
-
Helping present our practice and frame displays to a premium standard.
-
Working alongside the team to create an exceptional patient experience.
Who we're looking for

-
Enjoys building genuine relationships with people.
-
Is organised and has great attention to detail.
-
Communicates confidently and professionally.
-
Brings a positive attitude and enjoys working as part of a team.
-
Is eager to learn and develop new skills.
-
Has previous customer service, retail or reception experience (optical experience is highly regarded but not essential).
