Specsavers Opticians

About Us

Changing lives through better sight and hearing.

Specsavers is a great British success story – a family-run retailer that is a familiar name on almost every high street and in the community in the UK and Ireland. Our legendary catchphrase – ‘Should’ve gone to Specsavers’ – is used by everyone and its warm and witty marketing has won a place in people’s hearts.

We are proud of how far we’ve come as a business, now we want to see you grow with us.

What it’s like to work for us?

We invite you into a supportive family.

Specsavers began more than 35 years ago with the vision of two optometrists, Doug and Mary Perkins, who set out to provide best-value eyecare to everybody.

Their passion for optometry has led Specsavers to become the largest privately-owned optical group in the world, delivering high-quality, affordable optical and hearing care in 10 countries. And it continues to shape the lives and experience of around 37,000 colleagues who are developing their careers with us across the globe.

We're a fast-paced environment with no two days the same. We help all ages and no customer is the same. You'll give clear advice to ensure everyone gets to make an informed choice about their eye and hearing care.

You'll get the chance to develop your skills continuously and grow your career with us.
