This is a leadership role with the following responsibilities:
* Coordinating production for your shift (day, afternoon, or night shift)
* Ensuring shift tasks are completed and the coordination of shift handover
* Assisting in troubleshooting
* Assisting with operations when needed
* Training staff in operating mineral sample preparation equipment (sample sorting, drying, weighing samples using a balance and LIMS system, crushing samples, etc.)
The Essentials
* An understanding of the sample preparation process or experience with ALS systems
* Ability to work with minimum supervision
* Ability to lead, supervise and instruct team members
* Be flexible and able to multitask
* Availability to work rotating shifts
* Excellent communication, organization, and time management skills
