Smurfit Westrock plc is seeking a Laboratory Technician for our West Point Mill in Virginia. The Lab Tech will perform effluent and wastewater sampling to support VPDES environmental compliance, run analyses on multiple instruments, and assist with QA investigations. Weekend/on-call duties are part of the role. Qualifications include a chemistry degree (bachelor or associate with experience) and the ability to learn quickly, manage time well, and communicate findings clearly.

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.
