“Find your role”
At Asda, there is nothing more important than the health and wellbeing of our customers. Our priority is to always put them first by delivering high-quality patient care.
Due to our extended service contracts with the NHS, we're committed to delivering a wide range of care for the treatment and monitoring of minor eye conditions. A typical day will involve screening patients, coaching, and training the wider team whilst helping to maintain standards in the department.
At Asda, we are extremely passionate and committed to providing our Optometrists with all the training they will need to fulfill their role and enhance their skills. Not only do we have a fantastic CPD programme, but we also offer protected time for our Optometrists to complete further accreditations funded by Asda. This ensures you have the full training package to meet the ever-changing eye care needs of our customers. It's all about developing and supporting you to reach your full potential.
With access to in-store, regional, and home office teams, you are fully supported in all aspects of your role. Whether your query is clinical or service-based, there is always someone on hand to offer expert advice and support.
“Let's find out about you”
At Asda, it's all about the service and creating a memorable experience for our customers, so you will be able to use clinical skills and passion for your role to help achieve this.
Working in partnership with an Optical Manager (a qualified Dispensing Optician), you'll play a key part in creating an environment that combines both clinical and operational excellence. By working alongside the wider department team, you will support coaching, training, and help to develop new patient services to ensure we are able to offer our customers the most current and accessible services to meet their needs.
