Area Manager / Licensed Optician/ Apprentice Optician | Rochester, NY

About Veritas

Veritas is New York State’s fastest-growing eyecare network. We operate under a unique concept: we provide independent, community-focused private practices with corporate-level backend support, premium supply chains, and advanced patient experience (CX) tech systems.

When you join Veritas, you don't work for a cold, "big-box" retail chain. You enjoy the tight-knit, family-oriented culture of a local private practice alongside the competitive pay, elite benefits, and clear growth pathways of a major organization.

Open Positions & Key Responsibilities

We are currently looking for passionate optical professionals at all stages of their careers to join our Rochester area teams:

Managing Optician: Lead, mentor, and inspire a high-performing optical and retail team. Oversee inventory curation, track performance metrics, manage workflows, and maintain a premium patient experience. (NYS License Required).
Licensed Optician: Provide elite-level clinical and fashion dispensing. Guide patients through customized lens tech and curated frame collections, capture precise optical measurements, and troubleshoot fit or prescription issues. (NYS License Required).
Apprentice Optician: Learn from the best while completing your training hours. Assist patients with frame selection, adjustments, styling, and learn the backend tech of modern opticianry under a dedicated mentor. (Enrolled in or eligible for NYS Apprenticeship).

Why Build Your Career with Veritas?

We believe in elevating the optical craft, which means investing heavily in the people who make it happen.

Premium Pay: A highly competitive wage structure ranging from $28.00 to $34.00 per hour depending on your specific role, certification level, and experience.
A Modern Patient Experience (CX): Say goodbye to outdated booking and tedious paper trailing. We equip our offices with state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment and streamlined workflows that let you focus entirely on your patient and your craft.
Curated & High-End Inventory: Work with an expertly curated, diverse selection of premium independent frame lines and cutting-edge lens technologies that fit every lifestyle.
Clear Pathways for Upward Mobility: We don't believe in career plateaus. We offer robust professional development assistance, structured internal promotions, and continuing education support to help apprentices get licensed and licensed opticians move into management.
Dynamic Work Options: Beyond our fixed clinic locations, we offer unique localized "traveling optician" opportunities to break the monotony, providing a refreshing change of scenery across diverse local clinics.

Benefits Package

Comprehensive Health, Dental, and Vision Insurance
401(k) retirement plan with company matching
Generous Paid Time Off (PTO) and paid holidays
Professional development and continuing education assistance
Substantial employee discounts on eyewear and services
Referral bonus programs

Qualifications

For Managing/Licensed roles: Active New York State Ophthalmic Dispensing License (minimum 1 year of experience preferred for leadership).

A strong passion for customer service, patient care, fashion eyewear styling, and modern tech workflows.
Excellent communication skills and a team-oriented mindset.

All inquiries and applications will be held in the strictest confidence.
