Validation Specialist (Technical Services)
As SVA celebrates more than 20 years as Australia's leading provider of independent Performance Qualification (Validation) services within the healthcare sector, we continue to grow and are seeking a technically minded professional to join our Technical Services team.
About the Role

As a Validation Specialist (Technical Services), you will undertake testing, measurement and performance verification activities on specialised healthcare equipment including:
Washer Disinfectors
Low Temperature Vapourised Hydrogen Peroxide Sterilizers
You will collect and analyse technical data, assess equipment performance and process efficacy against recognised Standards and prepare detailed reports that support safe and effective patient care.
The role combines hands-on technical work, problem-solving, data analysis and client interaction.
As this role involves regular attendance at hospitals and healthcare facilities throughout Australia, successful applicants must be willing and able to meet the vaccination, screening and healthcare worker compliance requirements stipulated by individual health services and facility operators.
Evidence of vaccination status, immunity and other site-specific compliance requirements is required prior to commencing work at certain client locations.

Industrial testing, calibration or commissioning
Field service technician positions
Technical roles within healthcare or medical device industries
We provide comprehensive technical training, clinical education and ongoing professional development.
