Specsavers is transforming Audiology in New Zealand
The Specsavers journey began in the UK in 1984, where we pioneered innovations in eye care that transformed the industry. But our commitment to revolutionising healthcare didn’t stop at eye care. In 2017, we introduced audiology services in Australia, followed by New Zealand in 2019.
Specsavers Audiology provides affordable and accessible hearing solutions to everyday Kiwis and Aussies. For us, audiology care isn’t just a service, it’s personal. We prioritise our customers’ well-being and satisfaction, placing great emphasis on transparency in pricing to empower informed decisions.
Specsavers Audiology aims to bridge this gap by offering hearing screenings as part of our regular health checks, making early detection more accessible. By identifying hearing loss earlier, we can significantly increase the number of individuals seeking assistance, thereby reducing the isolation, stigma, and mental health issues associated with untreated hearing loss.
Our mission extends beyond diagnosis. We believe in equipping individuals with the knowledge and tools to make informed choices about their hearing aids – a rarity in the industry achieved through our transparent pricing model.
Ways to join Specsavers Audiology
Partnership has been at the heart of our success story since our inception in 1984. Our co-founders, Doug and Dame Mary Perkins, established the first Specsavers stores in the UK, and it’s been the power of partnership that has fuelled our growth ever since. Specsavers Audiology partnership offers audiology professionals the opportunity to become business owners within our network of optical stores across New Zealand.
Our Audiology partners earn a guaranteed market-rate salary plus KiwiSaver, as well as dividends for the lifetime of their partnership agreement. This unique approach to ownership provides the best of both worlds – the autonomy of entrepreneurship with the support and stability of a reputable brand.
But if partnership is not yet on your horizon, we also offer employment opportunities. When you become a member of the Specsavers team, you will work in a large multidisciplinary team that promotes collaboration and a supportive work environment. To ensure that our employees feel valued and rewarded for their hard work, we provide competitive market rate salaries and provide ongoing opportunities for learning and development, including leadership development towards partnership, for those interested in advancing their career.
