Our client is seeking an experienced LIMS System Administrator to provide operational support for the administration and maintenance of master data within LabWare Version 7.

The successful consultant must already possess hands-on experience with LabWare and be capable of contributing from day one. Internal onboarding will cover company-specific processes and operating procedures only; no technical LabWare training will be provided.
