Chemist II - Nutrition Lab

The Chemist II is a technical anchor for the analytical laboratory, taking meaningful ownership of day-to-day operations while working closely with the Lab Manager to keep the team running at a high standard. You'll lead method development, validation, and optimization work; keep analytical instrumentation — HPLC, GC, ICP-MS, ICP-OES, UV-Vis, FTIR — in peak condition; and serve as a go-to resource when nonconformance events (OOS, OOT, deviations) require thorough root cause investigation and CAPA follow-through.

 

Compliance with ISO 17025 and regulatory standards is woven into everything this role touches, from audit readiness to SOP development. Beyond the bench work, this is a mentoring role — you'll shape how junior staff approach their craft and contribute to a culture where safety and continuous improvement aren't afterthoughts. If you take quality seriously and want room to actually lead, this position is built for that.
