Full job description

Department Information

The mandate of the Department of Environment and Climate Change is to manage land, water, air, wildlife, and forests. This includes promoting, planning, and supporting the wise and sustainable use of natural resources, and protecting, restoring, and stewarding the environment for the social and economic benefit of all Northwest Territories residents.

Job Information

The Environmental Laboratory Technologist (Lab Tech) is responsible for receiving a wide variety of environmental sample types and analyzing the samples for chemical, molecular, and microbiological parameters. The Lab Tech works primarily in one of the five sections of the lab: Inorganics, Organics, Trace Metals, Molecular/Microbiology, or Sample Login; however, the Lab Tech will be cross trained in other sections as required for the effective operation of the Taiga Environmental Laboratory (TEL).

The Lab Tech will be designated as an Analyst under the NWT Waters Act to certify and analyze legal samples. This may require the incumbent to testify in court.

Key Responsibilities

Receives, organizes, and conducts chemical analysis of water and wastewater samples using standard and CALA-accredited laboratory methods to ensure that TEL clients have the results required to make decisions about public health, regulatory compliance, and environmental contamination levels.
Maintains records of all work, quality control (QC) samples, analytical data, and results. Results are entered into the LIMS for use in client reports.
Performs, records, interprets, and monitors QC on analytical data and equipment to ensure the precision and accuracy of reported results.
Performs and assists in the optimization and maintenance of complex laboratory equipment to minimize downtime, maintain productivity, and reduce the need for costly repairs or replacements.
Provides support for other sections of the lab on an as-needed basis to ensure standard or rush turnaround times can be met during the peak summer season or whenever there are staff shortages.
Maintains inventories of analytical supplies, reagents, and consumables.
Follows Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System principles to collect and store chemical wastes produced during testing until appropriate final disposal available.

Key Qualifications

A diploma from a recognized environmental or chemical laboratory technology program or a degree in a relevant field of science such as chemistry, biology, or environmental science AND a minimum of two (2) years' experience working in an environmental testing laboratory in addition to any experience obtained during the diploma or degree program.
