Job Description

Embark on a compelling journey as a Medical Laboratory Technician on a travel assignment rooted in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, where your precise expertise transforms patient care and advances clinical practice. This specialty offers a unique chance to make tangible impacts across diverse hospital and clinic environments while expanding your technical repertoire, professional network, and career trajectory. Begin this opportunity on 01 / 06 / 2026 for a multi-week assignment that promises consistent 40-hour weeks, reliable engagement, and the kind of hands‑on lab experience that sharpens your diagnostic acumen. Beyond the lab bench, Colorado’s landscape invites you to explore breathtaking vistas—from the soothing waters of Glenwood Springs’ hot springs to the rugged majesty of the surrounding Rockies, where outdoor adventures, arts, and small-town charm complement a fulfilling professional chapter.

Location benefits extend beyond Glenwood Springs. Working in this vibrant Colorado setting blends a high‑quality lifestyle with access to advanced facilities and a community that values precision and teamwork. The region’s scenery is matched by its professional ecosystem, offering exposure to a range of analyzers, methodologies, and patient populations. If you crave variety, the program also provides opportunities to rotate to other labs across the U.S., delivering diverse instrument platforms, evolving workflows, and a wider spectrum of clinical indications. That variety translates into sharper problem-solving skills, enhanced adaptability, and a richer professional portfolio, while you enjoy the advantages of a supportive travel framework and year‑round access to recreational and cultural amenities.

Role specifics and benefits center on your critical responsibilities and ongoing growth within the Medical Laboratory Technician discipline. In this role, you’ll perform and oversee routine and complex tests across hematology, clinical chemistry, microbiology, and / or transfusion medicine, with meticulous attention to pre-analytical processing, instrument operation, QC / QA, and data entry. You’ll validate results, troubleshoot instrumentation, participate in method validations, and contribute to accuracy, turnaround times, and patient safety. You’ll collaborate with pathologists, clinicians, and fellow lab professionals to interpret findings and communicate clearly, ensuring that clinicians have timely, reliable information to guide treatment. The position emphasizes professional development through exposure to varied specimen types, multi‑instrument workflows, and quality improvement projects. In return for your expertise, the program offers competitive compensation with a weekly pay range of $1,678 to $1,755, guaranteed 40 hours per week, and the potential for contract extensions. Additional benefits include housing assistance to ease relocation, a potential bonus program recognizing performance or milestones, and opportunities to extend assignments to broaden your horizons within different laboratories and geographies. Comprehensive support is available 24 / 7 as you travel with the company, including a dedicated liaison, access to travel resources, and rapid assistance for any on‑the‑road needs.

The company values your contributions and is dedicated to empowering your career. You’ll find a culture that supports professional advancement, continuous learning, and a collaborative, inclusive environment where specialists are encouraged to lead process improvements, mentor peers, and drive best practices across laboratory operations. The travel model is designed to nurture autonomy while maintaining a strong framework of safety, guidance, and teamwork, ensuring you feel supported at every stage of your assignment.

If you’re ready to elevate your expertise, enjoy dynamic settings, and join a company that prioritizes your growth and well‑being, apply today. This is your chance to blend clinical excellence with the adventure of travel, create meaningful impact for patients, and build a future in laboratory medicine that reflects your ambitions and dedication.
