About The Position

Pearle Vision in Massachusetts is seeking an ambitious, entrepreneurial Optometrist interested in employment, professional practice ownership, franchise ownership, or a potential transition among these options. The opportunity is at an established Pearle Vision location with an existing patient base and experienced team, rather than a startup.

The role offers several possible paths: joining an established practice as an employed Optometrist focused on patient care; starting as an employed doctor with a negotiated opportunity to transition to an independent Sublease Doctor position; exploring an ownership arrangement that combines professional practice and optical retail revenue; or, for an experienced doctor or practice owner, exploring purchase of the established franchise alongside a separately arranged professional practice transition.

The team offers the opportunity to learn from experienced optical business owners, including mentorship informed by more than 40 years of patient care and business experience. The company describes its culture as focused on positive mindset, staff empowerment, personal growth, and helping others succeed. All employment, sublease, practice-transition, and franchise arrangements are subject to mutually agreed terms, applicable laws, required approvals, and franchise requirements. Ownership and financial results are not guaranteed.

Requirements

• Doctor of Optometry qualification; the posting describes candidates as doctors and Optometrists.
• Ambition and interest in exploring entrepreneurial or business-ownership opportunities for the ownership paths.
• Existing experience as an Optometrist or practice owner is referenced for candidates considering direct franchise acquisition.

Nice To Haves

• Interest in transitioning from employment to independent practice ownership or franchise ownership.
• Existing Optometry or practice-ownership experience for candidates pursuing direct ownership.
• Interest in business mentorship, staff development, and growing an optical business.

Responsibilities

• Provide optometric patient care, including eye exams, as an employed Optometrist if that path is chosen.
• Potentially develop and operate an independent professional practice as a Sublease Doctor.
• Potentially build and lead a team of doctors and opticians and focus on business leadership and growth, depending on the ownership path pursued.

Benefits

• Opportunity to work at an established Pearle Vision location with an existing patient base and experienced team.
• Potential mentorship from business owners with more than 40 years of experience.
• Potential opportunity to transition from employment to professional practice ownership or franchise ownership, subject to negotiated terms and required approvals.
• Potential to develop additional income opportunities and long-term business equity through ownership; outcomes are not guaranteed.
