We are recruiting a Temperature Mapping Calibration Technician to join our field-based Service team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to begin a career in technical service, calibration, validation or laboratory/pharmaceutical support. No previous temperature mapping or calibration experience is required and full training will be provided.
This position is suitable for someone at an early stage in their career and no specific third-level qualification or previous temperature mapping experience is required. Full training will be provided. We are looking primarily for someone who is reliable, motivated, technically minded and willing to learn.
The position is initially being offered as a 12-month fixed-term contract, with a strong possibility of a permanent position thereafter.
MSC operates an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited temperature calibration laboratory, and all work is carried out in accordance with established procedures and quality requirements. The current specification already correctly emphasises temperature mapping, calibration and documented SOP-based work as the core of the role.
The successful candidate will be trained to:
Carry out temperature mapping of equipment including laboratory refrigerators, freezers, ultra-low temperature freezers, incubators, ovens and climatic chambers.
Carry out temperature mapping both at MSC's premises and at customer sites.
Perform temperature calibration of customer equipment in accordance with established procedures.
Complete all required pre-work and post-work checks.

Liaise professionally with customers while working on site.
Provide support to other members of the Service and Quality teams where required.
Full clean driving licence.
Based within reasonable commuting distance of MSC's office in Damastown, Dublin 15.
Strong attention to detail and ability to follow documented procedures accurately.

Good written and verbal communication skills.
Reliable, organised and able to manage assigned work.
Ability to work independently once trained.
Willingness to travel to customer sites throughout Ireland.
Motivation to learn and develop technical skills.
No specific third-level qualification or previous industry experience is required.
We are happy to consider candidates with Leaving Certificate or equivalent education who can demonstrate the right attitude, aptitude and work ethic.
Previous experience in any of the following would be advantageous but is not essential:
Temperature mapping.
Calibration.
Validation.
Laboratory or pharmaceutical environments.
Field service or technical service.
Quality-controlled or regulated environments.
Working to Standard Operating Procedures.
Full training will be provided in temperature mapping, calibration equipment, relevant procedures, documentation and our quality system.
For the right candidate, the role offers significant scope for development. Over time, there may be opportunities to develop further within temperature mapping and calibration or into other technical/service roles within MSC.
