About the Role

Compass Associates are proud to be working with a long-established, independent hearing care provider renowned for its personal service, loyal patient base, and excellent clinical standards.

We’re seeking an experienced and confident Audiologist or Hearing Aid Dispenser to join a friendly, growing team and take on a key role supporting both hearing aid and ear wax removal clinics across two local sites. This is a fantastic opportunity for a motivated clinician who enjoys working independently, delivering high-quality patient care, and contributing to a successful private practice environment.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Conducting full hearing assessments and fittings using recognised private-sector systems and technology
• Performing ear wax removal using micro suction and irrigation techniques
• Recommending and fitting tailored hearing aid solutions from premium manufacturers (Phonak, Widex, Signia, Starkey, etc.)
• Delivering first-class aftercare and maintaining trusted patient relationships
• Managing your own diary efficiently and ensuring smooth clinic operations
• Working autonomously across two local sites (including one day per week at a GP practice)
• Supporting business growth and maintaining the practice’s strong clinical reputation

What We’re Looking For

• HCPC-registered Hearing Aid Dispenser (or qualified Audiologist eligible for registration)
• Minimum 2 years of unsupervised wax removal experience (micro suction & irrigation)
• Proven private practice experience – NHS-only background less suitable
• Comfortable working independently with excellent time management
• Confident using hearing aid programming software (training can be provided)
• Patient-focused, professional, and commercially aware
• Strong communication skills with a warm, personable approach

The Package

• Basic Salary: £36,000 – £40,000 (dependent on experience)
• Commission Structure: Between 5% to 15% of Sales
• OTE: £55,000 – £70,000+ (uncapped)
• Contract: 37.5 hours per week (flexible part-time options considered)
• Schedule: 3+ days per week (Weds & Thurs essential; alternate Saturdays preferred)
• Autonomous role with ongoing support from a highly experienced owner-operator
• Access to advanced hearing aid technology and continuous professional development

Interview Process

The process is straightforward and designed to give candidates a clear understanding of the practice environment and expectations:

• Initial Teams call – brief introduction and discussion about experience and fit
• Face-to-face interview – opportunity to meet on-site and see the clinic
• Optional shadow/taster day – observe clinic operations and team dynamics before committing

Interviews can be scheduled flexibly, including evenings or weekends, to accommodate candidate availability.
