Optometrist Vacancy - Trouteaud Opticians - Guernsey
Swap the Daily Grind for Island Life & 1 Hour Test Times!
Imagine a clinical routine where you have a full hour for every single testing appointment, working out of a state-of-the-art practice just 2 minutes from the beach.
Trouteaud Opticians in St Peter Port, Guernsey, is seeking a passionate Resident Optometrist to join our thriving, high-profile practice. Following a complete full-practice refit last year, we operate three daily clinics in a modern, beautifully designed clinical environment equipped with the most advanced diagnostic technology.
Whether you already live locally or are looking to relocate to one of the UK’s most desirable island destinations, this role offers an unbeatable balance of clinical excellence and outdoor lifestyle. We know moving off the mainland is a big step, which is why we offer a tailored financial relocation allowance dependent on your circumstances.

Our commitment to clinical excellence means we prioritise truly personalised patient care.

Following a complete refit in 2025, our modern facilities feature sleek interiors and high-spec testing suites operating across a busy, vibrant triple-clinic setup. Every room is designed for maximum practitioner comfort, fully equipped with phoropter heads and supported by state-of-the-art diagnostic technology - including OCT and Optomap - allowing you to deliver the ultimate comprehensive eye examination. Behind the scenes, you will join a highly skilled, supportive practice team that seamlessly handles pre-screening, dispensing, and daily administration. This dedicated support ensures your day runs smoothly, leaving you free to focus entirely on delivering outstanding clinical care.

Back-office services for independent eye care
Hakim Group is the largest network of independent opticians and audiologists in the UK and Ireland. It uses a joint venture model that acquires a majority stake in practices while the original owners keep a minority share and continue to manage, letting each practice keep its brand and community focus. The group provides centralized back-office support—procurement, finance, accounting, IT, technical support, HR, and training—so clinicians can concentrate on eye and hearing care, with revenue coming from these shared services. Its goal is to grow its network, scale its support platform, and improve efficiency and patient care across the optical and audiology sectors.
