Collect, prepare, and dispatch samples for laboratory testing

Support cleaning validation, environmental monitoring, and micro sampling

Assist in calibration and maintenance of QC equipment

What We’re Looking For

1–3 years’ experience in a QA or QC role within the food, dairy, or pharmaceutical industry

Tertiary qualification in Food Science, Microbiology, Chemistry or related field

Strong knowledge of GMP, HACCP and food safety systems

Attention to detail and a hands-on, can-do attitude

Good communication and documentation skills

Familiarity with export regulations, infant formula standards, or FSANZ/Codex requirements is a plus

Language Requirements

Mandarin & English bilingual proficiency is required

Must be able to read, write, and communicate fluently in both languages, especially for documentation and internal coordination
