Specsavers Canada Recognized as One of Canada’s Best Workplaces in Retail

Specsavers was named in Canada’s Best Workplaces™ in Retail/Hospitality for 2024 by Great Place To Work®. The honour highlights Specsavers’ dedication to cultivating an exceptional workplace culture that prioritizes its people and ensures outstanding service and care for all.

 Since entering the Canadian market less than three years ago, Specsavers has swiftly emerged as a leading optical retail employer, setting high standards in both retail service and optical care. This recognition marks a significant achievement for the company, reflecting its commitment to fostering an inclusive environment where colleagues belong and thrive.

“This achievement would not have been possible without the passion and dedication of our team. Ranking in the Best Workplaces™ in Retail/Hospitality list reflects our ongoing efforts to listen to and support our colleagues and partners, providing the resources to empower them to deliver excellence in both retail service and eyecare. This recognition validates our approach.”

Bill Moir, Managing Director, Specsavers Canada

Earlier this year, Specsavers was also recognized as one of Canada’s Best Workplaces™ as well as one of Canada’s Best Workplaces™ for Women by the same awarding body.
