The Point of Care Testing team at Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust is seeking to recruit a full-time Point of Care Testing associate to join our team to support our rapidly developing portfolio of connected Point of Care Testing devices.

As a member of the POCT team you will contribute to day to day delivery of the POCT service with specific responsibilities for maintaining specialised POCT equipment, troubleshooting, reagent management, documentation, performance of internal quality control, administration of external quality assessment programmes, delivering and organising training, audits and supporting service users.
