Want to be the reason why people should’ve gone to Specsavers?

As an Optometrist here, you’ll be the go-to for eye examinations and contact lens services, helping us keep the nation seeing 20/20.

You’ll work with the store team to deliver high-standard clinical care and customer service to meet both patient needs and business objectives. And of course, you’ll be a key part in creating a warm and friendly environment for our customers and our team.

Our Store

A rare opportunity has come available here at Cwmbran Specsavers. We are a Welsh leading customer service store, offering both clinical excellence and high Optometrist retention, with over 130 years of Optometrist experience within our current team. We offer IP/Med Ret & Glaucoma Cert training and run a very successful Pre Registration programme with the experience we are able to offer. We are looking for the candidate that fits into our staff friendly culture, offers high customer service, high ethical beliefs and a drive to further themselves both mentally and academically.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
