Job description

Laboratory Support Workers (Band 2/ 3)

We require laboratory support staff to work with qualified scientists to perform basic sample preparation and data entry.

Band 2/3 Dependant On Any Previous Relevant Experience.

A flexible approach to working hours is required as the Department provides a 24/7/365 service. The successful candidate(s) will work as part of a busy multidisciplinary team and have a positive professional approach to patient care.

The Departments of Laboratory Haematology and Clinical Biochemistry are spread across 4 sites at 3 hospitals in Oxford and Banbury, and the successful candidates would work as part of a team at the Banbury site of the Trust.

The Departments are both UKAS and HCPC accredited.
