  • A focus on safety protocols and quality standards
  • Certificate III in Laboratory Skills (or equivalent) highly regarded
  • Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a team

What's in It for You

  • Casual role with view to permanency in 2026

  • Competitive hourly rate with casual loading
  • Paid Parental Leave and employee wellbeing initiatives
  • Structured, laboratory-based work – no travel required
