Optical Dispenser

Anderson Family Vision Care is a family-run practice that has been caring for Manitoba families for 50 years. We believe in a team approach and genuinely care about both our patients and the people who work with us.

We are looking for a friendly, motivated and outgoing Optical Dispenser to join our North Winnipeg team. This would be a great fit for someone who enjoys working with people, has an eye for fashion and style, and likes helping others find products that look great and meet their individual needs.

As an Optical Dispenser, you will work one-on-one with patients to help them select frames and lenses, explain their options, take measurements, and assist with their eyewear needs under the direction of our licensed opticians and optometrists.

The person we're looking for:

• Friendly, positive and comfortable talking with people
• Motivated and eager to learn
• Has a good eye for fashion, style and what looks great on different people
• Able to learn technical information about lenses and eyewear quickly
• Strong communication, problem-solving and critical-thinking skills
• Dependable and works well as part of a team
• Previous optical experience or knowledge of lenses is an asset, but we are willing to train the right person
• Previous retail, customer service or sales experience would also be an asset

We provide on-the-job training, ongoing support and continuing education, with opportunities to grow and advance within our company.

Compensation will depend on experience and optical knowledge.

If you enjoy working with people and are looking for a career where you can combine fashion, technology and patient care, we would love to hear from you.
