Description:
Beach Eye Care is a fast, fun, and growing company. Interested candidates should enjoy a fast paced team oriented environment, be straight forward, have strong organizational and multitasking skills with high attention to detail. Using the latest technology we are able to offer our patients state of the art lenses and treatments.
Candidates that are non-licensed or licensed may apply. Experience in the Optical field is preferred. We are currently interviewing Licensed and un-licensed Opticians. Customer Service skills are a must. The position floats between all of our 5 locations.
Opticians must be in touch with the current trends and fashions. Our practice has very short Saturday hours, and no Sundays. You typically work 1 late shift (ending at 7pm) a week. Saturdays are usually 1 Saturday every 3 to 4 weeks (8am-2pm) when we are fully staffed. Employees typically work 5 days a week so if you work the shift on Saturday you have a day off during the week to rest. Sometimes we pay OT depending on staffing and the person works M-F plus the Saturday.
Indeed is not setup to add notes under pay so here are the details:
Compensation is hourly, and competitive. Total pay ranges from $20 to $25 and this is a base pay rate + commission for someone just starting out. Base pay is determined by the years of experience in the Optical field and years in customer service. With our commission structure in addition to the hourly rate the typical range is from $4 - $8 extra an hour. The range that you fall in depends on your ability to educate the patient. Overall pay with commission is more than competitive market rates. We are a large practice and have a full benefits package with very affordable healthcare. If you have experience or a state license the base pay and total pay is more.
We welcome applications from managers that work at Optical retail chains whether licensed or non-licensed. Licensed total pay is more due to a higher base rate and also based on experience. We have several former managers and 3 Optometrists from Americas Best currently on our team. We also have former managers from Visionworks, Pearl Vision, Walmart, For Eyes, and Lenscrafters.
We are happy to answer any questions if you reach out!
