Additional Information
Our story began with a passionate idea that we could change the world.... And to be honest, we've never stopped believing that... In 1986 it was a simple concept that microbiology teamed with innovation and clinical contribution could eliminate an issue that was profoundly impacting the healthcare industry - HIV acquired through needle-stick injuries. In Australia, we lived out our dream. Investing years into R&D to create the safest containment system in the world and taking on the industry status quo to petition for higher standards in sharps protection, we witnessed an 80+ percent reduction in disposal-related needlestick injuries nationwide. And then we kept going... Who are we looking for... The ideal candidate will have broad logistics/transportation experience, in-depth understanding of logistics metrics, truck routing and distribution, and excellent interpersonal and customer service skills. Knowledge of the health care industry is highly regarded.
