• Keeping accurate records and supporting timely product release
• Partnering closely with Production, R&D, Micro, and QA
• Helping with stability pulls, line checks, retains, equipment calibrations, and everyday lab operations
• Supporting investigations, OOS work, and continuous improvements
• Being part of a team that moves fast, works smart, and supports each other

What You Bring

• An Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry, Biology, or a related field (preferred)
• 2+ years of QC lab experience in cosmetics, personal care, OTC, or pharma
• Solid understanding of GMP/GLP practices and documentation standards
• Experience with common QC instrumentation
• Strong organization, communication, and follow-through
• A positive attitude, curiosity, and the ability to work well across teams

What You Can Expect

• A growing company with a long legacy (we’ve been around since 1948!)
• A busy, supportive, and genuinely fun QC team
• Real opportunities to learn, contribute, and grow
• A department that works hard, laughs often, and takes pride in doing things the right way

If you want a role where you’re challenged, appreciated, and part of a team that’s building something great, we’d love to meet you.
