Basildon Essex, United Kingdom Synlab Full time

We are seeking an enthusiastic and motivated Specialist Biomedical Scientist in Clinical Biochemistry to join our Blood Sciences team based in Basildon.

Pathology First operates over three sites using a hub and spoke model. Our hub site offers a high throughput service for our non-urgent community work, and specialist testing for specific proteins. Our two hospital laboratories at Southend and Basildon provide urgent testing for acute admissions and inpatients. Our laboratories receive approximately 1.2 million clinical biochemistry requests per year, on which we do approximately 12 million tests. The main analyser platforms are Beckman Coulter, fully tracked at the hub laboratory, backed up with Roche. The hospital repertoire includes CO2, lactate, osmolality, ammonia, bile acids, troponin T, BNP, xanthochromia, haematinics, therapeutic drugs, thyroid hormones, procalcitonin, prolactin, BHCG and cortisol. The hub laboratory repertoire is more extensive with three different immunoassay platforms. You will need to be flexible to fit in with our multi-site, around the clock shift pattern (unsocial shifts attract additional payments). The environment is fast-paced offering a one-hour turnaround time to acute users, two hours for inpatients and four hours for community requests. You will require specialised knowledge and experience of laboratory techniques, analyser platforms and associated equipment. As a specialist you will independently validate all clinical biochemistry investigations. You will have a role in the training of less experienced employees, and you will be involved in quality management including auditing and document review. You will need to be conversant with the main laboratory information management system and middle-ware applications. Basildon hospital is twenty minutes’ walk from the bus and train stations, there is easy cycle access, and limited paid car parking is available on site.

* IBMS Specialist Diploma in Clinical Biochemistry, or equivalent specialist qualifications

* At least 2 years relevant experience post HPC registration as a BMS with on-going specialist training

* Able to demonstrate a good knowledge and experience of industry standard laboratory information management systems
