Alongside being a qualified and GOC registered Optometrist, we are searching for someone who shares our store's ethos.

In summary, we're looking for a skilled resident Optometrist to join us, be part of the team and assist in driving our practice forward.

Join us at Specsavers in Haddington, East Lothian for an exciting opportunity to take your clinical skills to the next level. Our BRAND-NEW store is opening in August 2024 and we're looking for a committed Optometrist to join our team.
