The Microbiology department at the Nottingham University Hospitals NHS trust have some exciting opportunities to gain entry to a laboratory career with permanent posts within our Medical Laboratory Assistant team. The role of a Medical Laboratory Assistant is varied and involves supporting the scientific staff (Biomedical Scientists) and as such is a key role in supporting a diagnostic service.

Please confirm at the top of your supporting statement that you can attend an onsite interview.
In addition to the below summary you need to familiarize yourself with full Job Description and Person Specification documents attached to this advert.
Work will include the receipt, sorting, and preparation of patient samples, maintaining stocks of consumable items, disposal of biological waste, operating and maintaining laboratory equipment as well as performing general housekeeping duties and clerical tasks including data input of patient demographics and test request information. The post holder will also be expected to answer telephone enquiries and perform visitor reception duties.
Previous experience in an NHS clinical laboratory would be an advantage but is not essential as full training will be provided.

A good level of secondary education is required with English, Maths and Science to GCSE (Grade A-C / 4 to 9) in addition to an A Level / T-Level or BTEC Level 3 in a Science subject.
