WE'RE HIRING Mobile Optical Professional - Community Vision Care

Eye Care Group | Edmonton, Alberta

Big personality. Big heart. A passion for people.

Are you outgoing, confident, friendly, and someone who can strike up a conversation with just about anyone?

Do you love helping people, enjoy working independently, and get excited about achieving goals and seeing the results of your hard work?

Eye Care Group is looking for someone who brings energy, compassion, enthusiasm, and initiative to everything they do.

We're not looking for someone who wants to sit behind a counter all day. We're looking for someone who enjoys getting out into the community, meeting people from all walks of life, building relationships, and making a difference.

Who We Are

Eye Care Group is an independent, Edmonton-based outreach optical service dedicated to bringing accessible, affordable vision care and eyewear directly into our communities.

We work alongside community organizations, shelters, and support agencies to help individuals who may otherwise face barriers to accessing vision care.

We believe everyone deserves to be seen, treated with dignity, and given the opportunity to see clearly.

And we believe that delivering great care should come with warmth, kindness, a little humour, and genuine human connection.

What You'll Be Doing

This is a hands-on, people-focused role where no two days are quite the same.

- Travel throughout Edmonton to deliver optical services at community locations.
- Welcome clients warmly and create an approachable, comfortable experience.
- Assist with eyewear selection, frame styling, measurements, fittings, adjustments, and repairs.




- Learn to operate vision-screening equipment and develop additional optical skills appropriate to your qualifications and training.
- Help clients understand their eyewear options, lens designs, and available vision-care benefits.
- Build strong relationships with community partners and identify opportunities to bring our services to more people.
- Manage appointments, client information, orders, and follow-up care.
- Set up and organize mobile optical equipment and eyewear displays.
- Take ownership of your work, contribute ideas, and help grow our community presence.

Who We're Looking For

Personality matters just as much as experience.

Our ideal candidate is:

- Outgoing and confident: You're not shy about approaching people, introducing yourself, or starting conversations.
- Genuinely compassionate: You treat everyone with patience, dignity, kindness, and respect, regardless of their circumstances.
- Friendly and personable: You have a natural ability to put people at ease.
- Self-motivated: You enjoy setting goals, taking initiative, and being recognized and rewarded for great results.
- Independent: You're comfortable managing your day and solving problems without constant supervision.
- Adaptable:



You can work comfortably in a variety of community environments.
- A relationship builder: You enjoy developing connections that help both clients and community organizations.
- Eager to learn: You're excited about expanding your optical knowledge and learning recent skills.

Experience & Requirements

- Previous experience in opticianry, optical dispensing, or a comparable hands-on optical role is required.
- Licensed opticians are welcome
- Duties will be assigned according to applicable professional requirements.
- Willingness to undertake further education and training in vision screening, eyewear dispensing, and optical services.
- Valid driver's licence, reliable vehicle, and willingness to travel throughout Edmonton.
- Comfortable carrying 30 lbs transporting and setting up portable equipment.
- Strong communication, organizational, and customer-service skills.
- A genuine interest in community-based care and helping underserved populations.

What Makes This Opportunity Different?

This isn't a traditional optical retail position.

You'll have the freedom to meet new people, work in different environments, develop meaningful relationships, and play an important role in growing a community-focused service.

You'll have opportunities to expand your optical skills, take ownership of your work, and contribute to a business that believes in both doing good work and recognizing great performance.

We're looking for someone who wants to be part of something bigger than simply selling glasses.
