Optician JobAlbuquerque, NM

Why You’ll Love This Job

Build a career in eyewear styling and sales — without the retail burnout.
Join Sandia Vision Clinic and help patients look great, see clearly, and feel confident every day.

We are seeking an energetic and service-driven Optician who enjoys building relationships, making recommendations, and helping patients choose eyewear and vision solutions that match their lifestyle and personal style. This role is a great fit for someone who:

  • Has experience in retail sales, styling, or hospitality
  • Enjoys influencing purchase decisions and hitting goals
  • Takes pride in personal presentation and helping others look their best
  • Thrives in a fast-paced, team-driven environment

Enjoy strong benefits and hands-on training to help you grow your skills and confidence. Candidates with experience in sales-focused or high-interaction roles — such as premium retail, hospitality, fine dining service, or other customer-facing industries — often excel in this position.

If you enjoy staying active, connecting with people, and being rewarded for your effort and energy, this is an opportunity to build a long-term career in a stable and growing healthcare practice.

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Great Work Life Balance (no Saturdays)
  • Stable schedule — no late retail hours
  • Paid training in optical + product knowledge
  • Growing earning potential
  • Opportunity to grow into leadership roles
  • Work in a respected, established medical practice (40+ years)

Responsibilities

Why You’ll Love It:

  • Help patients choose eyewear that fits their lifestyle, personality, and vision needs — combining style, function, and confidence
  • Confidently recommend premium products and solutions that improve patient outcomes
  • Ensure eyewear orders are processed accurately and completed in a timely manner
  • Perform adjustments, repairs, and dispensing of completed glasses
  • Drive optical sales by confidently recommending premium products that improve patient outcomes
  • Follow up on eyewear orders and communicate proactively with patients
  • Keep frame boards stocked, organized, and visually appealing
  • Collaborate with team members to deliver a seamless and positive patient experience

Skills & Qualifications

Skills/ Requirements:

  • Strong communication and relationship-building skills
  • Comfortable making recommendations and guiding purchase decisions
  • Positive, energetic personality with a goal-oriented mindset
  • Ability to stay organized and productive in a fast-paced environment
  • Basic computer comfort and willingness to learn new systems

Experience in optical, retail sales, hospitality, fine dining service, or other customer-facing roles is strongly preferred.
Spanish language skills are a plus.
