About the role

The role includes basic husbandry for animals, sanitation, and monthly environmental tasks to ensure welfare of animals such as mice, rats, and other species. The position requires safety/compliance with SOPs and GLP, and may involve weekend/evening rotations. A HS diploma or GED is required, with a BS/BA preferred, and ALAT certification is a plus.

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.
