What does this role look like?

We're looking for a motivated Environmental Consultant / Lab Tech (open to either part-time or full-time basis), who is ready to hit the ground running. You will be joining a tight-knit, ambitious team to conduct onsite asbestos inspections and analysis in our fully equipped mobile lab. You'll play a key role in building strong foundations for the business through clear and professional communication with both clients and team members.

What You'll Do:

  • Lead asbestos inspections, sample collection and analysis aligned with AS 5370 and ISO 17025
  • Prepare documentation & reports to NATA-accredited standards (report templates provided)
  • Use tools like PLM, stereo microscopes & field sampling equipment
  • Stay current with asbestos-related regulations and drive compliance
  • Communicate clearly with clients, builders, and civilians onsite
  • Participate in internal training, team meetings, and contribute to growth

What You Bring:

Must-haves:

  • Experience in asbestos testing and handling
  • Tertiary qualification in Occupational Hygiene, Environmental Science, or similar
  • Experience in a NATA-accredited laboratory with familiarity with ISO 17025, AS 5370 (previously AS 4964) or ISO 22262
  • 3+ years of relevant field experience (asbestos-focused)
  • Satisfactory results from external Proficiency Testing within the last 2 years (PTA)
  • PLM & Stereo Microscope knowledge and experience (must)
  • Australian Driver's License (must - we're a mobile laboratory)
  • Strong time management and autonomy
  • Experience / knowledge of asbestos and how to identify it using a microscope (must)
  • Ability to positively lead a team as we grow (we want you and your role to grow with us)

Highly desirable:

  • Knowledge of SharePoint & Ascora
  • WHS tickets (e.g. Working at Heights, Asbestos Awareness)

  • Every day is different – we're always in the field
  • New tech & training – work with cutting-edge systems & tech
  • Career progression – opportunity to move into management
