Associate Optometrist
Whitby North, OntarioÂ
Start seeing patients right away. Work alongside a seasoned optometrist, experienced working in a variety of care settings.

Supported by a dedicated, patient-focused team, the clinic serves a strong patient base and is committed to delivering high-quality care. This is an excellent opportunity for an optometrist who values clinical autonomy, flexibility, and a relationship-led approach to patient care.Â
Everything you need to deliver exceptional care
You'll work alongside passionate professionals who share a commitment to changing lives through better sight. Here, your focus stays where it belongs - in the exam room, delivering thoughtful, patient-centred care, not chasing sales targets.

- The NIDEK Tonoref 3Â
- NIDEK automated lensometerÂ
- Topcon Maestro2Â
- Reichert Manual Phoropter
- S4OPTIK slit lampÂ
Â
A shared commitment to care - be part of a team dedicated to proactive eye health, with OCT available as a standard part of every eye exam
Integrated pre-test support - trained eyecare consultants welcome and guide your patients through pre-testing, with results sent directly to your exam room for your consultation
Â
Clinical autonomy - practice in an independent clinic with the freedom to deliver care your way, supported by Specsavers' technology and resources
Ongoing development - access dedicated optometry support consultants and annual continuing education opportunities for professional growth
Clinic ownership when you're ready - develop your business acumen and ability to lead teams. Apply to Pathway, a business development program designed to support you in taking the next steps to become a clinic owner at your pace.
CompensationÂ
Percentage of billings: 65%-70%Â
Final compensation will be determined based on experience and skillset by the independent clinic owner.Â
Â
What makes a clinic within a Specsavers different?
At Specsavers, we believe quality eyecare starts with a simple idea: putting people first, always. For over 40 years, Specsavers has been committed to making quality eyecare and affordable eyewear accessible to everyone - because we believe no one should have to compromise on their eye health, regardless of their background or circumstances.
Today, we're the world's largest privately owned optical retailer and still a family-owned business. We're a place where you can feel you belong, and be part of something that truly makes a difference.
