Cochrane Family Vision is looking for a capable, personable Receptionist to join our locally owned optometry clinic.

This is a patient-facing role for someone who is organized, dependable, and comfortable taking ownership of their work. You will help create a welcoming patient experience while keeping the front desk and daily schedule running smoothly.

Responsibilities

- Greet and check patients in and out
- Answer phones and communicate professionally
- Schedule appointments and manage changes to the day’s schedule
- Update patient information and maintain accurate records

Who will succeed here

You may be a solid fit if you:

- Learn new software and procedures confidently
- Take initiative and follow through on commitments
- Contribute to a respectful, positive workplace

Experience in optometry, healthcare, medical administration, reception, hospitality, or another high-service environment is an asset. However, direct experience is not required for someone with a professional attitude and willingness to learn.
