Job Overview

Flame Health Optometry has been instructed to recruit a qualified Optometrist for a part-time position in South West Surrey.

The salary is £56,620 to £69,998 FTE, depending on experience and qualifications, and the role may suit an optometrist looking to complement an existing position or reduce their working days.

About the Job

You will carry out comprehensive sight tests and eye examinations, using diagnostic technology to support retinal imaging and visual field assessments. The role also involves giving patients clear clinical advice and preventative eye-care guidance, helping them manage their long-term eye health and building trusted relationships over time.

Working alongside the practice team, you will contribute to a positive patient experience and support branch performance through high standards of clinical care. The working pattern includes every Tuesday and alternate Saturdays.

You will have the opportunity to develop your expertise through funded professional development, including Independent Prescribing and further clinical qualifications.

About the Employer

Our client is an established independent optical practice serving its local community. Its services include optometry and contact lens care, with a focus on lasting patient relationships and clinical quality.

The practice offers clinical freedom and a supportive network of colleagues, with patient care prioritised over volume. Professional development is supported through funded opportunities, while the package also includes a performance-related bonus, professional indemnity insurance, a Health Cash Plan, life cover and staff discounts on products and services.

What We Are Looking For

You will need to be a fully qualified Optometrist registered with the General Optical Council.

The role calls for a genuine commitment to patient care and the ability to deliver comprehensive examinations while maintaining high standards of professional practice and governance.

Strong communication skills are important, as you will need to explain clinical findings and advice clearly, and build trust with patients. You should also be comfortable working collaboratively with the practice team and keen to develop your clinical expertise.

The opportunity is suited to someone who values a supportive working environment and takes a thoughtful approach to patients’ eye health.

Who This Role Suits

This position could suit an established Optometrist seeking part-time work, including someone looking to complement an existing role or reduce their working days.

It may appeal to a clinician who wants to build their expertise while practising with clinical freedom and keeping patient care central to each consultation.

Job Location

The role is based in South West Surrey on the edge of the Surrey Hills. The area offers countryside surroundings, independent shops and transport links.
