Job description

LEAD OPTOMETRIST
Sudbury, Ontario

Step into clinical leadership with flexibility within Specsavers Sudbury— with the freedom to grow your practice, your way.

Establish your clinic in Greater Sudbury, Northern Ontario's largest city and regional hub for healthcare, education, and commerce, attracting patients from across the surrounding communities.

This independent clinic is located within Specsavers at the Real Canadian Superstore on Lasalle Boulevard in Greater Sudbury, benefiting from reliable foot traffic and consistent access to new and returning patients.

This clinic operates in a fully fitted, professionally designed space with one exam room and pre-test room.

The Specsavers retail store is owned and managed by experienced optician, Lori Robert. The team of trained eyecare consultants at the store welcome and guide your patients through pre-testing.

Your opportunity

This role is designed for optometrists seeking greater autonomy, leadership, and a pathway towards ownership:

Start your own clinic your way — practice as an independent optometrist with full clinical autonomy

Flexibility to grow at your pace — start with as little as one day per week and expand over time; you have the flexibility to maintain your current commitments how it works for you

Build and lead your team — shape the culture and patient experience within your clinic

Pathway to ownership — unlock future partnership opportunities

Deliver clinical excellence — your clinic includes access a full suite of advanced diagnostic technology, including:
• NIDEK Tonoref 3
• NIDEK automated lensometer
• Topcon Maestro2
• S4OPTIK slit lamp

Support when you need it — benefit from Specsavers’ back office support, resources, and professional development, so you can stay focused on patient care.

What you’ll bring
• Registered optometrist in Ontario
• Entrepreneurial mindset with a passion for leadership and delivering quality, patient-centred care
• Motivated to take on leadership and grow a practice
• Interested in building toward greater independence and ownership

What makes being a Lead Optometrist with 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. That’s why we’ve made OCT available as a standard part of eye exams.

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.

Make it your own – with the confidence and support of being backed a globally trusted brand.
