Role Overview & Responsibilities

We are looking for conscientious and accurate people to perform, under the supervision of Biomedical Scientists (BMS), the receipt and pre-analytical processing of samples for microbiological investigations.

Although training will be given, keyboard skills are essential and demonstrable scientific interest would be an advantage. The posts will involve the use of laboratory IT systems to register the samples and also the some processing of samples using automated analysers and manual techniques.

The post will involve shift work (evening and weekends) and participation in the Bank Holiday rota. This attracts additional pay and compensatory rest.

ONE DORSET PATHOLOGY – delivering 21st century Pathology services

A new pathology computer system linking all the pathology laboratories in the county is now up and running and we have recently completed a major tender across the S6 Network to replace all of the analytical platforms.
