This is a fantastic opportunity for a full-time or part-time optometrist to join our experienced team at our Townsville Castletown practice.

Pre-testing is performed by the retail team and you then still have 30 minutes with each patient, so that you can give them the care they deserve.

As the largest urban centre in Queensland, everything is here that you need and there is so much more to explore! Spend your days biking, hiking up Castle Hill, exploring the family-friendly public art trail, going to the Strand night markets, and visiting the numerous local national parks which include the stunning Wallaman Falls (the highest, permanent, single-drop waterfall in Australia).
