Full job description

Based in Brisbane, we are looking for a motivated and enthusiastic individual to join our Central Laboratory in Darra as a Trainee Laboratory Technician.

This is a fantastic opportunity to kick-start your career in laboratory testing while gaining a nationally recognised Certificate IV in Laboratory Techniques. ABC Training & Consulting will provide the formal certification through a combination of theory-based learning and practical onsite assessments, giving you the opportunity to develop both your technical knowledge and hands-on skills.

Your Opportunity

Our laboratory performs testing for the construction industry, providing critical technical support across our cement, concrete and related products.

As a Trainee Laboratory Technician, you will rotate through different laboratory stations at regular intervals, building your knowledge and practical skills across a range of testing activities. You will receive hands-on training while completing your Certificate IV and working alongside experienced laboratory professionals.

As a Trainee Laboratory Technician, you will:

  • Carry out routine testing of cement, concrete and related products
  • Learn and perform manual testing methods
  • Develop skills in chemical analysis
  • Learn how to operate, calibrate and maintain laboratory equipment
  • Conduct analysis as part of investigations
  • Interpret data and develop your technical problem-solving skills
  • Maintain high standards of laboratory housekeeping
  • Learn and apply laboratory procedures and quality requirements
  • Contribute to a safe, collaborative and positive work environment

Safety is a key priority at Cement Australia. Throughout your traineeship, you will be supported to develop strong safety practices and encouraged to actively contribute to a positive safety culture.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who is curious, willing to learn, takes accountability for their work and enjoys developing practical and technical skills.

What You’ll Bring

You don't need previous laboratory experience to be successful in this role. We are looking for someone with the right attitude, aptitude and commitment to learn.

To be considered, you will demonstrate:

  • A genuine interest in laboratory work, science, testing or the construction industry
  • A willingness and commitment to complete a Certificate IV in Laboratory Techniques
  • Strong attention to detail and a commitment to quality
  • The ability to follow procedures and work safely
  • Good problem-solving and analytical skills
  • A positive attitude and willingness to learn
  • Good communication and teamwork skills
  • Basic computer literacy, including Microsoft Office
  • Initiative and accountability in your work

Previous experience in a laboratory, manufacturing, construction, mining or other industrial environment will be advantageous but is not essential.

Why Join Cement Australia?

  • Earn a Certificate IV in Laboratory Techniques while gaining valuable hands-on experience
  • Formal training and support through ABC Training & Consulting
  • Industry-respected Australian cement manufacturer
  • Engaged, collaborative and diverse team
  • Opportunities to develop a long-term career within Cement Australia
  • Employee entitlements and discounts
  • Free onsite parkin
  • Large enough to be an industry leader, small enough to make a meaningful impact.
