About the role

Tufts University’s Comparative Medicine Services (CMS) is seeking a Supervisor to manage day-to-day operations of animal facilities in Boston, with periodic travel to Medford. You will supervise 16–21 staff, maintain cagewashers and autoclaves, and help shape SOPs for animal care and facility operations.

Required: Associate’s degree with 1–3 years supervisory experience and LAT or LATG certification within 1 year; preferred: Bachelor’s degree with LATG. Remote work is possible one day per week.

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.
