Summary
I am a reliable and personable Optical Assistant currently working at Specsavers, with hands-on experience supporting optometrists, delivering high-quality patient care, and maintaining smooth practice operations in a busy retail-clinical environment. Skilled in pre-screening, frame styling, dispensing support, diary management, and delivering excellent customer service with professionalism and attention to detail.
Alongside employment, I am a Law student with a strong academic background, having achieved high GCSE and A-level results. My legal studies have strengthened my analytical skills, communication, accuracy, and ability to work responsibly under pressure - all of which translate effectively into patient-facing and administrative roles. Known for being calm, dependable, and quick to learn, I work well both independently and as part of a team. I am now seeking to continue my development as an Optical Assistant at a closer Specsavers store, bringing experience, consistency, and a strong understanding of Specsavers values and systems.
