Wellstar Sylvan Grove Hospital
Mid Level
Embark on a rewarding journey as a Medical Laboratory Technician on a travel assignment centered in Jackson, Georgia, where your precision and dedication translate directly into better patient outcomes. Imagine stepping into a role where every specimen you process, every cue you clarify, and every result you validate can influence diagnosis, treatment plans, and lives across diverse communities. In this specialty, your meticulous skillset becomes a vital bridge between the bench and the bedside, enabling clinicians to act with confidence. Georgia’s charm is an added bonus—lush landscapes, historic towns, friendly neighborhoods, and a rich blend of culture and cuisine create a backdrop that makes every shift feel meaningful. From the moss-draped oaks to the dynamic cities within reach, Georgia offers spaces to explore while you advance your career.
Location benefits extend beyond a single city. While Jackson anchors this assignment, our travel opportunities span Georgia and other locations across the United States, presenting you with the chance to work in varied laboratory environments—from high-volume urban centers to community hospital labs in scenic towns. You’ll encounter a broad spectrum of specimens, instruments, and methodologies, expanding your technical repertoire and sharpening problem-solving instincts. The evolution of your practice happens in real time as you collaborate with seasoned mentors, cross-train on advanced analyzers, and participate in process improvements that elevate lab performance. You’ll gain exposure to regulatory standards, quality assurance programs, and data-driven reporting that strengthen your professional profile. And because travel is at the heart of this opportunity, you’ll experience new communities, cuisines, and cultural moments—companioned by a sense of independence and purpose that only nationwide assignments can deliver.
Role specifics and benefits are designed to fuel growth and ensure you feel supported every step of the way. In this role, you’ll perform core laboratory duties with a focus on accuracy, turnaround time, and compliance: specimen accessioning, processing, and analysis across hematology, chemistry, microbiology, and/or immunology as you’re trained. You’ll execute quality control procedures, calibrations, and instrument maintenance, troubleshoot analyzer issues, document results with integrity, and ensure strict adherence to safety protocols and regulatory requirements. You’ll collaborate closely with clinicians and nursing staff to interpret results, flag anomalies, and communicate critical findings promptly. The position emphasizes professional development—opportunities to expand your skill set, pursue specialty certifications, and gain hands-on experience with cutting-edge platforms. You’ll have access to a comprehensive benefits package, including a sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and the potential for contract extensions that align with your goals. While weekly pay is competitive—ranging from $1,333 to $1,389—you should plan for the travel rhythm, since guaranteed hours are not fixed (0.0). The travel model is designed to reward efficiency, adaptability, and consistency across placements, with a framework that supports you through every shift. In addition, you’ll enjoy 24/7 support from our dedicated team while you travel, ensuring help is available whenever you need it—whether you have clinical questions, travel logistics, or safety concerns. Expect extension opportunities that let you build familiarity with sites you love, while also opening doors to new labs and regions as your preferences evolve.
Company values center on empowering staff, fostering career advancement, and cultivating a collaborative, respectful work environment. We celebrate your expertise and invest in your ongoing development, recognizing that your growth elevates patient care and strengthens the entire healthcare system. You’ll join a culture that values curiosity, accountability, and teamwork, where experienced colleagues mentor new travelers and support your seamless transition into each assignment. Our commitment to your wellbeing includes a robust support network, access to continuous education resources, and flexible scheduling options that respect your life outside the lab. We believe that growth is a shared journey—one that thrives when you feel valued, heard, and equipped to reach your next milestone.
Ready to embark on an exciting, impactful chapter? Apply today to join a company that honors your contributions, champions your professional development, and provides the stability of a reputable travel partner. This is more than a job—it’s a pathway to expanding your technical mastery, broadening your professional network, and discovering new parts of the country while you deliver essential laboratory excellence. Start date is February 2, 2026, with assignments measured in weeks and the opportunity to tailor extensions to fit your aspirations. Note: The hours and pay rates listed are estimates and may vary. Final compensation packages and guaranteed hours will be confirmed during the hiring process. The journey awaits—take the next step and let your expertise travel with purpose.
