Job Summary

We are in need of an Operations Specialist 1 to provide operational support for a new project and help ensure required activities and deliverables are completed accurately, efficiently, and in accordance with laboratory policies.

This position will support LANL PIT INFRA’s project objectives while maintaining safety, security, quality, and accountability.

For an Operations Support Specialist 1 supporting a project in PIT INFRA at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), the ideal candidate would need a combination of operational, administrative, project coordination, and business support skills rather than deep technical engineering expertise.
