Our Store
How does working in a multiple award-winning store sound? You could do just that at our thriving store in Larkhall. From winning the “Best Small Store Award”, the “Customer Service Award” and being runner up for the “Best Overall Store Award” for the whole of Specsavers UK and Ireland – there’s a lot to be proud of at Specsavers Larkhall.
In preparation for future expansion, Specsavers in Larkhall are looking for an Optometrist to join their successful and well-established team on a full or part-time basis. Whether you’re newly qualified or have years of experience, we want to hear from you!
Larkhall has great staff retention, a fantastic culture and offers a genuine opportunity to progress. The store has been serving the local community since 2018 and following a refurbishment last year, you will be working in a fresh, bright and modern environment. There are 3 test rooms all with the latest clinical technology, free parking and if using public transport, our store is only a 2-minute walk from the train station.
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.
