Sales Assistant – Optician & Retail（Jimmy Fairly)
About Jimmy Fairly
Boring? Expensive? Dull? Jimmy Fairly was born—not with a wanter—but a need to revolutionise the optical industry. Founded in 2010 by Antonin Chartier, a 23-year-old psychology student passionate for entrepreneurship, the concept was simple: give quality, fair prices, and a positive social impact.
Over a decade later, little has changed. Now with over 100 stores across Europe & the UK, Jimmy Fairly brings back great style (instant seasonal trends every 6 weeks) and a smile through:
- A U-turn-in-manufacturing process designed for quality without sacrificing the planet
- Customer-centric care, from entry to eye tests with expert optometrists, backed by an exceptional aftercare team
