• Ready for promotion?
• Love the challenge of leadership?
• Be mentored and acknowledged

At Quinn & Co. Eyecare, we’re passionate about eye health and helping people see the world more clearly. We’re looking for an experienced Optical Dispenser who’s ready for their next challenge. You’ll join us as an OD, learn our systems and standards, and- once you’ve demonstrated consistent performance and leadership (no more than six months) - you’ll be elevated into the Practice Manager role.

The Opportunity

You’ll start on the floor: dispensing, styling, and delighting patients. As you settle in, you’ll progressively take on leadership responsibilities - team coordination, inventory and supplier management, clinic flow, recalls, and KPI oversight - so that when we hand you the keys to the practice, it feels like a natural next step.

What You’ll Do (as OD, from day one)

• Welcome patients and guide them through seamless appointments and collections

• Dispense lenses with confidence, fit and adjust frames, and handle minor repairs

• Advise on lens technologies and coatings to optimise outcomes

• Place and track orders, manage warranties, and keep inventory tidy and accurate

• Partner closely with our optometrists and support team to deliver stand-out care

How You’ll Step Up (path to Practice Manager)

• Own daily clinic operations, patient flow, and roster coordination

• Lead, coach, and develop the team; set standards for service and sales excellence

• Manage supplier relationships, buying, stock turns, and merchandising

• Oversee recalls, Medicare/private health claiming accuracy, and compliance

• Track and improve KPIs (capture rate, AR coating mix, remake rate, NPS, rebookings)

• Drive local area marketing initiatives and community relationships

About You

You’re a seasoned Optical Dispenser with a sharp eye for detail and a steady, patient-first approach. You communicate clearly, stay calm under pressure, and enjoy mentoring others. You’re commercially aware, confident with lens technologies, and comfortable using practice software and Microsoft 365. Most importantly, you’re ready to lead.

Why Quinn & Co. Eyecare

We’re an independent practice that values people - patients and team alike. You’ll find a supportive culture, modern tech, and genuine work/life balance. If purpose matters to you, you’ll love the impact you make on vision and health every day - and you’ll have a clear, structured runway into management.

Pay & Progression

Hourly rate starting at $25.74 as an Optical Dispenser, with wages negotiable based on experience. On elevation to Practice Manager, a competitive package will be offered commensurate with responsibility and performance.

What’s in it for you?

Join a growing independent optometry group, which values its team members as much as its customers and encourages everyone to prioritise their health and family and maintain a healthy work/life balance. For those looking for purpose and a role that’s rewarding, you will enjoy helping us make a difference in people's lives by improving their vision and overall eye health. And if it’s career progression and a real challenge that you’re after, well, we can help with that too!

Quinn & Co. Eyecare values diversity and is an equal opportunity employer. We appreciate all applications, and all candidates will be contacted and notified of the outcome of their application.
