With clear intentions of expansion - our need for professional talent will extend for the next three to five years at minimum.

As a result of some exciting developments within the group, we welcome and encourage enquiry from experienced/qualified Optometrists and Dispensing Opticians.

Currently within Team Matthews (45 staff) we have 11 Optom's, 10 qualified or trainee dispensers and 24 support staff; in essence we’re a cultural melting pot (of Kiwi’s, English, South African) all contributing towards a collective 500+ years of Optics experience across the group.

Both professions (Optometrists and Dispensing Opticians) require registration with the NZ Registrations Board and the issuing of Annual Practicing Certificates.

If you are not currently registered to practice in New Zealand, there are some entry requirements that you will need to complete, please refer to the specific notes under our Locum Service.

We welcome your enquiry. Whether you're registered or not, we can help.
