Description
The Exploration and Environmental Division at Leidos currently has an opening for a split shift Laboratory Supervisor to work at our onsite USACE FUSRAP laboratory in Vandergrift, Pennsylvania. This position will be required to work a shifted schedule when required by the project schedule (e.g., 0930 – 2000). All other shifts will align with the normal project schedule (e.g., 0600 – 1430). Support of other Leidos onsite laboratories may be required.
The Laboratory Supervisor will focus primarily on ensuring high priority Beryllium samples are analyzed and reported daily. The Laboratory Supervisor will coordinate with the project daily and assign work to laboratory technicians to meet the required Beryllium sample turnaround. The Laboratory Supervisor will also support managing sample processing throughout the laboratory and tracking samples are being reported within project requirements. Also, the Laboratory Supervisor will be responsible for supporting the development and oversight of the site radiochemistry and inorganic chemistry analytical programs and capabilities. In this role you will work closely with the project team to identify the number of analyses required per unit time for each analyst, determine the types and number of equipment to be procured and installed, and the staffing requirements that will be needed to meet project goals. The position will employ multiple radiochemical and non-radiochemical techniques on environmental samples related to site characterization, site remediation, environmental permits, effluent waters, waste disposal, and general project support. You will also utilize data management system(s) to manage samples/data from beginning of sampling to the end of analysis and will work closely with the Project Chemist to conduct data validation and quality assurance/quality and produce control reports in support of an environmental remediation program for a group of clients.
The position will require obtaining training and passing BeLPT blood test and medical exam for working in a Beryllium environment.
