What are the responsibilities and job description for the Microbiology Dept Manager position at Legend Technical Services, Inc.?
Legend Technical Services, Inc. (LEGEND) is seeking an individual with a degree or strong background in microbiology with experience in culturing techniques and PCR testing.
Currently, LEGEND is converting the cannabis/hemp suite of testing from a plating system to a PCR system and is in the final stages of SOP creating and data validation for this prime method change. LEGEND wants a candidate with a background in microbiology with some PCR experience to lead the department in this work and supervise dept staff. Successful candidate should have some laboratory experience with a desire to be in charge of a dept, monitor the monthly performance with the assistance of financial staff, and work with other dept managers to operate the laboratory effectively. Creativity and a desire to assist others with micro expertise in some of the consulting work is also desirable. This position can be considered a stepping stone for a career in laboratory management as the dept is currently small and has been newly carved out of the laboratory as a separate dept.
