Introduction
Embark on a pivotal journey as a Surgical Tech in Marietta, Georgia, where precision, teamwork, and patient-centered care converge to support life-changing outcomes in the operating room. In this role, you’ll be at the heart of the surgical team—preparing sterile fields, passing instruments, maintaining counts, and upholding the highest safety standards so surgeons can perform with confidence and patients receive the best possible care. Your meticulous skills will help reduce turnover time, safeguard patient safety, and contribute to smoother, more efficient procedures that empower the entire OR team. As you grow in this specialty, you’ll gain confidence in high-pressure settings, sharpen your aseptic technique, and expand your knowledge of instrument sets, implants, and procedure workflows. Georgia’s beauty is an inspiring backdrop for your work: from the Blue Ridge Mountains’ scenic trails in the north to the metro buzz and cultural richness of Atlanta, to charming towns with Southern hospitality—Georgia offers variety and a sense of place that complements a demanding surgical career.
Georgia’s splendor and opportunities are complemented by the state’s diverse surgical environments. Georgia is home to renowned hospitals, close-knit medical communities, and a support system that values teamwork, professional development, and patient outcomes. The Marietta area provides a welcoming, community-focused atmosphere with access to excellent healthcare facilities, vibrant local culture, and convenient transportation links to Atlanta and beyond. For those who seek further breadth, this role also offers the chance to work across multiple locations in the United States, exposing you to a range of hospital cultures, operating room workflows, and patient populations—an ideal way to broaden your clinical toolkit while advancing your career.
Location Benefits
Marietta’s strategic location in the Atlanta metropolitan area blends small-town charm with big-city access. You’ll enjoy a robust healthcare ecosystem, with opportunities to collaborate across departments, learn from seasoned professionals, and contribute meaningfully to perioperative care. The region’s amenities—excellent dining, cultural events, museums, outdoor recreation, and easy travel options—support a balanced lifestyle outside the OR. If you crave variety, this program’s network includes assignments at partner facilities nationwide, opening doors to diverse operative teams, equipment platforms, and procedural volumes. The experience gained by rotating through different settings is designed to accelerate your growth as a Surgical Tech, while our 24/7 support team ensures you’re never navigating travel or placement alone. Whether you stay local in Georgia or venture to other states, you’ll find consistent expectations, clear communication, and a culture that values your contributions to patient safety and surgical excellence.
Role Specifics and Benefits
This assignment positions you to support the surgical team across a range of procedures, from routine aseptic setups to complex operations requiring precise instrument handling and instrument counts. Your key responsibilities include preparing and maintaining sterile fields, selecting, organizing, and handing instruments and implants, assisting with patient draping and setup, performing sponge and instrument counts, and promptly communicating with the surgical team to anticipate needs. You’ll uphold rigorous aseptic technique, manage equipment, assist with specimen handling, and contribute to efficient OR turnover after each case. The role offers meaningful opportunities for growth within the surgical tech specialty, including cross-training in areas such as neuro, ortho, and minimally invasive procedures, depending on facility needs and your interests. Compensation is competitive, with a weekly pay range of $1,238 to $1,320. The assignment begins on 01/05/2026 and runs for several weeks, with the potential for extension based on performance and facility requirements. In addition to base pay, you may be eligible for a sign-on bonus and housing assistance to ease the transition. The program is designed with extension opportunities in mind, enabling you to continue building your career path across our network. As you travel with the company, you’ll receive 24/7 support from a dedicated team dedicated to assisting with scheduling, lodging, travel logistics, and on-site needs. This comprehensive support framework helps you focus on delivering exceptional patient care while you advance professionally.
