When you join us, you'll be part of a global team harnessing the power of scientific testing and data-driven insights to build a healthier future.
About the Role
ALS is looking for a Sample Services Officer to join our Brisbane team in a varied role supporting our environmental laboratory operations.
This is not a traditional warehouse or courier role. While you'll help coordinate freight and sample movements, the position is much broader and includes client service, sample receipt, records management and regular sample collection runs across Southeast Queensland.
A typical month includes a mix of time at our Brisbane site and time on the road. You'll regularly be involved in receiving incoming freight, registering and labelling samples, assisting clients and preparing outgoing shipments, as well as completing scheduled environmental sample collections from our clients.
This is a fulltime, permanent position working Monday-Friday 9:30am-5:45pm. When not on the road you will be based at ALS's site in Stafford.
In this role, you will:
- Greeting clients dropping off samples.
- Receive deliveries and register client samples.
- Ensuring phone calls and emails are answered promptly and professionally.
- Arrange couriers and prepare freight for dispatch.
- Sample collection across Southeast Queensland.
- Ensuring sample deliveries and COC's are reviewed/triaged, labelled and distributed within designated timeframes and according to client needs and approved sample receipt procedures.
- Maintain accurate records of incoming and outgoing shipments
- Manual handling up to 10kg loads.
- Maintain sample storage and disposal by following safe work practices.
- Use a forklift to load and unload cages.
The Essentials:
- A positive, responsive customer focus and quality service attitude with a professional attitude.
- Driver's licence is essential.
- Superior attention to detail and a commitment to complete high-quality work.
- Ability to process multiple concurrent requests efficiently and accurately.
- An understanding of laboratory safety and chemical hazards.
- Excellent communication, organisational and time management skills.
- Ability to absorb and retain high levels of information.
- Forklift licence is desirable but not essential.
