Ensure lab safety compliance with OSHA requirements, chemical hygiene plan, and PPE protocols.

Equipment & Resources

Oversee calibration, maintenance, and qualification schedules for lab instrumentation (HPLC, GC, ICP-MS, UV-Vis, and related equipment).
Manage lab supply inventory, reagents, reference standards, and vendor relationships for outsourced testing.

Audits & Reporting

Support internal and external audits, including client audits, FDA inspections, and third-party certification body assessments.
Track and report key lab KPIs (turnaround time, first-time-right rate, testing backlog, etc.) to leadership.
Coordinate with Production, QA, R&D, and Supply Chain to align testing schedules with manufacturing timelines.

General & Additional Duties

Assist with other lab or quality tasks as assigned to support department and company objectives.
Perform other duties as assigned.
