Do you love being organised and hands-on? Curious about how a lab really works behind the scenes? If you’re someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and wants to build a meaningful career in science, you’ll feel right at home at Crux Biolabs.

Our company is growing fast – and we’re seeking a driven Junior Laboratory Technician to jump on board and grow with us.

What does that look like? You’ll be the lab's backbone, supporting our tight-knit team of

scientists helping pharma companies create medicines that save lives.

Driven by science, respected for results

At Crux Biolabs, we love one thing: science. It’s what unites us and drives us to help our clients create safe and effective medicines the world can access. (Our lab coats are just a bonus.)

Since day one in 2011, we’ve supported clinical and pre-clinical pharmaceutical development projects from Australia and around the globe. Our team is small – 55 to be exact – but our results speak volume. That’s why we work with some of the best pharmaceutical and biotech companies and clinical research organisations.

The Crux Biolabs evolution

Like the human cells we analyse, Crux Biolabs is growing fast. We’re on the hunt for someone keen to be a part of our growth. Someone excited to join Australia’s pharmaceutical and clinical development ecosystem – at the ground level.

What does that mean for you? Ample opportunity to innovate. And a career trajectory that matches our expanding horizons.

The culture that awaits you inside Crux Biolabs

Fast-paced: Think of our labs as a racetrack – and you're the pit crew chief. Your attention to detail will keep us running at peak performance.

Innovative: Always wanted to create something new? Here's your chance. We value team members who proactively improve efficiency and streamline workflows.

Supportive: Thrive in a culture that values inclusivity and development. Your ideas are heard, your efforts applauded, and your successes celebrated.

Impactful: This isn't just another job – it's an opportunity to shape how we work and leave a lasting

impression on a growing Australian industry.

A day in your new work life

As a Junior Laboratory Technician, you’ll play a key role in keeping our lab running efficiently. You’ll work side-by-side with experienced scientists and gain invaluable, hands-on experience.

  • Keeping the lab tidy, safe, and well-stocked
  • Operating and maintaining basic lab equipment
  • Recording data with accuracy and care
  • Stocktake reconciliation
  • Receiving laboratory materials

  • Curious and eager to learn
  • Detail-oriented and organised
  • Reliable and proactive
  • A great communicator and team player
  • Having a Certificate, Diploma or Degree in Science (or currently studying) is an advantage - but not essential.
