Salary: £26,000 per year

Technician – Material Handler

Temporary / Temporary-to-Permanent 

£20,000 

Immediate start available 

We are working with a global scientific organisation which has around 100,000 people working towards solving life-sciences problems through manufacture of pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals and equipment used in laboratories and hospitals worldwide. They are one of the best-known brands in their market. They are recruiting for their Warrington site for a colleague to work in a critical part of their goods-in operation. 

What you’ll do: 

This role will work broadly in material handling by which we mean you will be taking in chemicals which will ultimately form oligonucleotides. The incoming materials will be either in a raw or semi-finished condition and require some calculations for working out quantities needed. This will directly lead to their being released to the internal inventory used on the site. 

The processes of handling incoming chemistry will naturally be governed by Standard Operating Procedures and in compliance with the ISO standards for the site. This is a target driven area of the company as it forms a rate-limiting area i.e. without incoming materials not a lot can get done. Therefore there is a target set for accuracy and right-first-time delivery. 

You will be using SAP and other business software and maintaining a safe and clean working environment. 

Working hours are 8am-4pm this is a non-shift role. 

Your background:

We are seeking someone with an interest in the work who will bring strong numeracy skills, some scientific background or interest is preferrable but not essential. Strong attention to detail is important and we are seeking someone who is keen to work in an organised and methodical manner. Please on your application do make reference to these aspects of your personality, as for this role we are as much as anything recruiting for an attitude. Experience of working in other functions valuing organisation, teamwork and attention to detail will be of interest both from professional or recreational activities.
