Job Title: Production Chemist

Job Description

This role combines the responsibilities of a production chemist and potentially some laboratory work. The successful candidate will operate as a floater, assisting across various tasks as needed. Responsibilities include making slurries by mixing chemicals like calcium phosphate, phosphoric acids, and calcium hydroxide, and facilitating small-scale reactions to turn these slurries into powder. The role also involves using kilns to create ceramics that mimic bone material, handling large screen sieves, pulverizing equipment, and conducting basic washing processes. Documentation of the entire process is crucial, with a strong emphasis on detail to prevent costly errors. Occasional testing may be required, although this is usually managed by the quality department.
