Overview

A vacancy is available for a Booking-in Administration Assistant, at our goods-in area in Odiham, Hampshire. It is a permanent, full time position for our ISO 17025 accredited chemical laboratory, responsible for receiving and unpacking laboratory samples and for booking these into the computer database, ensuring the smooth and efficient intake of laboratory samples and the accurate entry of sample information. By maintaining an organised and timely sample reception process, the position directly supports laboratory operations and contributes to meeting strict turnaround times within the Quality System. Other duties may involve assisting the Laboratory Technicians with the collection of test results and the data entry of results into the database, goods-in reception and storage for other non-sample deliveries to the Company, and general housekeeping.

Responsibilities

Some of the duties are listed below:
• receiving and unpacking samples, receiving and communicating other deliveries, and distributing
as needed;
• booking samples into the database;
• progressing samples and helping with sample disposal;
• maintaining records and department supplies;
• keeping the goods-in area clean and tidy, assisting with the clearing of packaging to the waste
area.

Skills

We are looking for applicants who are enthusiastic, motivated, with a willingness to learn, who are able to use their initiative, and think independently. The successful candidate should:
• be an accurate, careful, and methodical worker;
• be able to work to deadlines;
• have neat handwriting and a good standard of Maths and English (written and spoken);
• be PC literate and have some experience in the use of Microsoft Office;
• be able to work in a team and to communicate with all levels of staff;
• have a flexible attitude towards the type of work undertaken;
• be familiar with and committed to quality assurance.

Previous experience working in a goods-in, or booking-in / data entry environment would be an advantage but not essential.
