Intertek is a laboratory service company providing testing, inspection and certification to industry around the world since 1885.  The main focus of our Derby Laboratory is to support a major engineering business with exacting quality and safety standards

 We are currently seeking administration support for a new role nominally based on a split site in Derby. Duties will include document control, logging detail on a web-based quality system, and the use of electronic systems for commercial invoicing and purchase of laboratory equipment and consumables.  In addition basic laboratory tasks may be required. Full training will be given in all tasks required.

 A flexible individual is required with a meticulous approach and attention to detail.

The laboratories are sited within customer production facilities and a strong respect of health and safety is essential. The post holder may be required to work independently and have good time management and organisational skills.  They will be able to take responsibility, have a high level of initiative and integrity and the ability to respect commercial and personal confidences. An awareness of quality requirements for an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory would be advantageous. 

 This is a full time post with a working week of 37.5 hours normally Monday to Friday. However flexibility that may require weekend, shift or out of hours cover is desirable.  The two main sites are within easy walking distance of each other and own transport is not essential.  Occasional support of other Intertek UK sites may be required and a clean driving license and willingness to travel would be an advantage.

 Preferred qualities and competencies:

• Keen attention to detail
• A high standard of written English
• A good knowledge of excel and other office software
