We have a new and exciting job opening for a Medical Laboratory Assistant (MLA), available on a full-time (40hr) and permanent basis in our Sample Reception Team. This position will involve receiving blood samples and close coordination with our Biomedical Scientists and Pathology staff to conduct a variety of tests requested by our clients. Who are we? SYNLAB Laboratory Services is part of SYNLAB UK & Ireland, who provide laboratory diagnostic and training services to a diverse range of sectors including healthcare and wellness, sport, travel, corporates and insurers, logistics and family law. Our site in Abergavenny has 2 in-house laboratories, offering a wide range of pathology tests including occupational health and wellness tests, as well as workplace drug and alcohol testing. In addition to our laboratories providing UKAS accredited ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 15189 testing, we are one of only a few providers offering an end-to-end in-house collection and laboratory service. What the role involves:

  • Receipting, checking and sorting of specimens, labelling and preparation for analysis.
  • Inputting patient and test data into the laboratory computer system.
  • Maintaining accurate record keeping and excellent working practices in the laboratory.

  • A detail-oriented individual who takes pride in their work and works well with computers and data entry.
  • We would like full-time applicants to work collaboratively with one week in three to cover Saturday hours (2-4hr). These hours can be taken back flexibly in the week which is something our staff benefit from.
  • Must be an excellent team player with tenacious spirit and have a responsible and reliable sense.
  • Ability to manage time to best advantage and with good communication skills.
  • Good computer skills with accurate typing/data input.
