About the Role
We’re looking for a full-time Dispensing Optician to join us in delivering the kind of personalised, patient-first care we’re known for across 2 practices. You’ll play an important role in helping people see and feel their best, by offering expert advice, guiding them through frame and lens choices, and making sure every fit is as comfortable and accurate as it is stylish.
Join our close-knit, patient-focused team at Mathesons. We are seeking a versatile, proactive clinician who enjoys a varied week - combining 2–3 testing clinic days with hands-on practice support, triage, and patient care.

Alongside your clinical dispensing days (2–3 days per week), you will support the wider running of the practice by assisting with patient pre-screening, imaging, and triage, as well as front-of-house reception and general practice support on non-clinic days. You’ll also help keep practice workflows seamless and act as a reliable, knowledgeable lead for both patients and colleagues. Above all, you’ll bring clinical thoroughness, an eye for detail, and a flexible, caring approach to every part of your day. What We’re Looking For

- Strong clinical knowledge paired with excellent communication and interpersonal skills
- Flexibility to work across both practice locations (Alresford & Grayshott)
- A proactive, hands-on attitude and willingness to support all areas of practice life
