Ideally, you will also have experience supporting enhanced services and a solid understanding of local clinical networks.
This Optometrist role comes with a competitive base salary and a Boots Retirement Savings Plan with up to a 12% company contribution. We will also reimburse your GOC and professional indemnity fees.
You will benefit from CPD days throughout the year and a performance-based quarterly bonus. The package includes enhanced maternity/paternity/adoption leave pay and generous employee discounts for you and a family member.
