Lead Optician / Eyewear Stylist

About the role

We are seeking a high-caliber, energetic, and experienced Optician to join our team. If you are an optical professional who treats eyewear as both a critical medical device and a premier fashion accessory, you will thrive in our culture.

Position Overview & Core Expectations

Your daily focus will revolve around three operational pillars:

• The Perfect Hand-Off: Collaborating directly with our Optometrists at the exam lane door to seamlessly take over patient care, confidently translating the doctor’s custom clinical prescriptions (anti-reflective coatings, photochromics, high-index materials) into optimized eyewear solutions.
• Retail Capture & Eyewear Styling: Delivering tailored, lifestyle-focused style consultations. You will be responsible for maintaining an active personal Optical Capture Rate of 65%+ and maximizing multiple-pair sales by matching patients with dedicated secondary options (prescription sunglasses, digital/office lenses).
• Technical Excellence & Lab Control: Utilizing your deep industry knowledge to take flawless digital and manual measurements (PD, fitting heights, vertex, wrap). You will oversee the ordering, verification, and neutralization of lens jobs to guarantee absolute accuracy, minimize non-adapt reworks, and protect store material margins.

Qualifications & Skills

• Proven Experience: Minimum of 2-3+ years of retail optical experience (experience within premium networks like LensCrafters, Pearle Vision, or high-volume environments is highly preferred).
• Technical Command: Proficient in frame styling, facial shape analysis, lens material limitations, troubleshooting patient adaptation issues, and adjusting multi-focal/progressive lenses.
• Sales Motivation: A natural communicator who loves interacting with people, possesses a strong retail drive, and views sales through the lens of comprehensive patient care.
• Team Collaboration: A reliable professional who values a unified workplace and seamlessly synchronizes with both clinical doctors and front-desk staff.

What We Offer

• Competitive, guaranteed hourly base wage commensurate with your experience.
• Comprehensive on-the-job training on our advanced diagnostic and digital ordering tools.
• Generous employee eyewear discounts.
