• Maintain accurate patient records and registers of specimens collected
• Prepare, pre-sort and package specimens ready for transport to laboratories
• Adapt quickly to different teams, locations and workflows while maintaining a consistent standard of patient care
• Maintain collection supplies and a safe, clean and professional environment
