Optician - Experience preferred!

Allure Eyecare is a new private optometry practice in a growing area with an emphasis on creating a culture where patients and team members feel they are part of a family. Our optician will be responsible for the selling, fitting, and dispensing glasses and will be expected to assist with answering phones, patient scheduling, insurance verification, and other tasks that arise on a day-to-day basis while providing a great interpersonal experience for our patients. We are a small group and rely on teamwork. We are looking for a candidate that has experience in the field, exceptional communication skills, is flexible as the office grows, has the ability to multitask, to see the big picture of what needs to be done and most of all the passion to be instrumental in helping to lay the foundation for our growing company.
