Specsavers. A household name and a Highstreet staple. And you could be part of the team.
We’re looking for a hard-working, passionate Optometrist who is ready to provide our customers with the best eyecare in the business. At Specsavers Honiton, you’ll join a community focused team full of people from all walks of life and all levels of experience. So, as long as you’re a qualified and GOC registered Optometrist, whoever you are, you can make a difference here.
People choose us - for care and careers. Because feeling supported and valued makes a difference. We were proud to be ranked 16th best place to work in the world in 2024 by Great Place to Work®, a reflection of the supportive, people-first culture we’ve built.
We’re locally owned by people who understand our communities, powered by leading-edge technology, and committed to making eye care accessible and affordable for everyone. When you join us, you’re choosing more than a job - you’re choosing a place where you can thrive.
Our store
Based in Honiton, our store boasts 5 test rooms with all the latest equipment, utilised by the 25 members of the team!
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
