Flame Health Optometry have been instructed to recruit a Branch Manager for a confidential client’s established Putney practice. This is an opportunity for a qualified Dispensing Optician to take on a leadership position, guide colleagues and contribute to commercial performance while maintaining a high standard of patient care. The role offers a salary of £41,525–£43,709, together with a £5,000 welcome bonus.
The Branch Manager will lead the practice in Putney, balancing business performance with attentive service for customers and patients. It would suit a GOC-registered Dispensing Optician ready to develop a team, build customer relationships and take greater responsibility for a practice’s success.
Reporting to the Area Manager, you will oversee the practice’s day-to-day performance and lead, motivate and develop colleagues. You will encourage a positive working culture while maintaining a focus on the customer and patient experience.
Commercial leadership is central to the position. You will monitor performance, work towards branch targets and put strategies in place to support growth. Building lasting customer relationships and helping colleagues deliver consistently excellent service will also be important parts of your remit.
The working pattern alternates between Monday to Saturday, with one weekday off, and Monday to Friday. The package includes a performance bonus scheme, staff discounts and a contribution towards gym or club membership, in addition to the welcome bonus.
Our client is an independent, family-owned provider of optical and hearing care with nearly 100 years of heritage. Its business is built around the expertise, care and dedication of its people, with a commitment to supporting their development.
The organisation operates in the health and human services sector. For a manager seeking a role in an established practice, it offers the chance to contribute to both commercial results and the quality of care customers receive. The position combines people leadership with direct responsibility for the practice’s performance and working culture.
You must be a qualified Dispensing Optician and fully registered with the General Optical Council. The role calls for an experienced, confident professional who can lead colleagues and bring a commercial perspective to the management of a practice.
You should be comfortable developing others, setting an example through your own approach and building an environment where colleagues feel supported. The ability to monitor performance and act on opportunities to improve results will be important, alongside a clear commitment to customer service and patient care.
This role is suited to a Dispensing Optician who is ready to step into branch leadership or build on existing management experience. You may be looking for a position where developing colleagues, strengthening customer relationships and taking ownership of commercial performance are all part of your next career move.
