Optical Lab Technician / Glazing Technician – Glasses Frame Repairs – Horsmonden, Kent
Salary: £27,000 to £30,000 FTE DOE, plus discretionary bonusHours: Monday to Friday, approximately 30 to 40 hours per week – Full or part timeLocation: Horsmonden, Kent
Zest Optical is recruiting an Optical Lab Technician or Glazing Technician for a specialist glasses repair and lens reglazing workshop in Horsmonden, Kent.
This is a hands-on role combining prescription lens glazing with the opportunity to learn detailed spectacle frame repairs. The business works with customers and optical practices across the UK, repairing glasses that often cannot be fixed in a standard optical practice.
The role
Glaze and reglaze prescription lenses using Essilor equipment
Check lens powers, prescriptions and finished spectacles for accuracy
Assess damaged frames and learn specialist glasses repair techniques
Help process online orders and respond to customer enquiries, mainly by email
Support the small team with occasional customer appointments and other workshop tasks
About you
You’ll ideally have optical lab or glazing experience and a good understanding of prescription lenses and frames. Experience with Essilor, Nidek or Huvitz equipment would be useful, but the team can help you adapt to its systems.
Previous frame repair or rimless glazing experience would be an advantage, although neither is essential. You’ll learn repair techniques from a highly experienced spectacle technician, including how to achieve repairs that are both secure and neat.
The team would also consider someone who has moved from a glazing role into optical retail, provided they have retained strong technical and lens knowledge. You’ll need to enjoy practical work, take care with customers’ eyewear and be willing to help across the business when needed.
What’s on offer
£27,000 to £30,000 FTE depending on experience, pro rata for reduced hours
Discretionary annual bonus
Monday to Friday working, with flexibility around start and finish times
Approximately 30 to 40 hours per week, including the option of shorter days
Free on-site parking
Training in specialist spectacle frame repairs
The workshop is in a rural location, so access to a car is likely to be needed.
If you have optical glazing or lab experience and would like to develop specialist frame repair skills, we’d love to hear from you. Apply today with your CV, or contact Zest Optical for a confidential chat about the role.Send us a message on Whatsapp!....Read more...
