About the role

Cambridge Health Alliance seeks a Pathology Assistant to support diagnostic services within our Healthcare & Medical Services department. This on-site role performs gross examination, dissection, and description of surgical and autopsy specimens, and prepares tissues for histology. You will ensure accurate labeling and documentation, collaborate closely with pathologists and clinical teams, and contribute to training learners while advancing health equity for diverse, underserved communities.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
