The post would suit careful and accurate individuals who would work under pressure helping to provide a service that is vital to the diagnosis and treatment of patients in the hospital and surrounding community.
The ability to communicate well is essential. IT skills including data input skills are an integral part of the role; previous laboratory is desirable but not essential. There is a requirement to work nights to support the 24/7 laboratory out of hours service and work on both Hospital sites.
