The role — and the deal

n

This is a hands‐on, field‐based job, and we train you from the ground up. You'll travel to client sites around Brisbane (occasionally regional QLD) to test, certify, service and repair specialist lab equipment — biosafety cabinets, fume cupboards, centrifuges, incubators, ultra‐low‐temperature freezers, particle counters and more.

You don't need to have done this before. If you've got a solid technical trade and the right attitude, we'll teach you our NATA‐accredited methods and put you through the certifications. You walk away building a portable, in‐demand NATA qualification and a long‐term career in a specialised field.
