About Us
Australian Scientific Enterprise (ASE) is a leader in clinical pathology diagnostics, manufacturing essential Quality Control (QC) and External Quality Assurance (EQA) materials for pathology laboratories worldwide. We are dedicated to making a positive contribution to global healthcare, investing in research & development, and continuous innovation in in-vitro diagnostics (IVDs). Our team values long-term growth and a collaborative environment, creating opportunities for all members to thrive and contribute meaningfully.
The Role
We are looking for an enthusiastic scientist to join our team, with hands-on training provided in the production of pathology quality control (QC) materials. This position offers a unique blend of laboratory production, post-production testing and project coordination. It will suit those looking for a diverse and evolving role in a fast-growing business where continuous learning and growth are encouraged.
Key aspects of this role include:
- Laboratory Production: Conducting precise laboratory production work such as blood fractionation, high-precision pipetting, use of analytical balances and pH adjustment.
- Post-Production Testing: Working with various laboratory instrumentation, including chemistry, coagulation, blood gas, and point-of-care analysers.
- Project Coordination: Overseeing contract-production projects from start to finish, including communication with clients, ordering materials, and organizing production processes.
The position also offers exposure to research and product development; including literature reviews, pilot studies and transfer to full production.
This is a full-time, permanent role based in Hornsby, NSW.
Standard hours are Monday to Friday, 8 am – 4 pm.
Who We’re Looking For
We’re seeking a dedicated, practical, and outcome-focused individual who is eager to learn and grow within a dynamic, fast-growing organisation. The ideal candidate will bring:
– A positive attitude, attention to detail, and enthusiasm for continuous learning.
– Tertiary qualification in Biomedical Science or a related scientific field.
– A keen interest in manufacturing and developing innovative calibrators and pathology QC.
While prior experience in pathology (biochemistry/multi-disciplinary preferred) or the IVD industry is valued, we are open to investing in the training of individuals with potential and ambition. Practical laboratory experience is beneficial but not essential.
Why Join Us?
ASE offers a supportive environment that values long-term growth, learning, and innovation. This is an excellent opportunity to be part of an exciting industry that plays a crucial role in supporting global healthcare.
Remuneration is above the NSW Health Scientific Officer Award.
