- You will use automated hematology analyzers, microscopes, and other diagnostic tools to perform CBCs, coagulation testing, and other analyses that support veterinarians in diagnosing illness and disease.
- You will prepare and evaluate blood, bone marrow, and body fluid samples, including manual differential cell counts and morphology assessment, flagging abnormal results for pathologist review.
- You will set up and run lab tests, and read and release results according to SOPs.
- From day one, you'll have full autonomy, with full support whenever you need it — as part of a team proud of helping vets diagnose pets and animals quickly.
- BSc in Biomedical Science or equivalent.
- Lab experience is a plus; hematology or blood smear experience is an advantage but not essential — full training is provided.

- Ability to follow SOPs, use computers for data entry, and multitask with strong attention to detail.
- Ability to meet physical requirements, including standing or sitting for extended periods, lifting up to 50 lbs, and specific vision requirements (close, color, depth perception)
