Coordinate sample analyses and data review of incoming samples based on priority and turnaround times.
Perform extended periods of microscope work.
Maintain the QA/QC Program and follow Standard Operating Procedures.
Assist with daily laboratory operations, including maintenance, calibration, stocking, and cleaning.
Extended workdays and weekends may occasionally be required.

Qualifications

Applicant must be able to distinguish colours to perform analysis.
College Diploma or suitable Bachelor’s Degree in Science. Biotechnology, Geology, or Biology would be an asset.
Knowledge of, or some exposure to, asbestos characterization using polarized light microscopy and/or phase contrast microscopy in a production laboratory is desired.
Superb attention to detail and accuracy.
