Lab Pack Chemist

Lab Pack Chemist -

Turn complex chemical waste into safe, compliant solutions

You know your chemistry. Here, you’ll put it to work in the field—at customer sites—where decisions matter and your expertise keeps people and the environment safe.

You’ll be the one identifying unknowns, segregating chemicals, and packaging hazardous and non-hazardous waste so it moves safely and legally through the world.

This is hands‑on, boots‑on‑the‑ground chemistry work. Not lab theory.

You’ll also lead tech/chemist teams as needed, interface directly with customers, and become the trusted expert they call when they need waste handled right the first time.

If you’ve packed drums, done waste characterization, or worked in environmental services, we want to talk to you.

You’ll work at various customer locations, handling real‑world chemical waste streams and all the documentation that goes with them:

Hazardous and non-hazardous waste at customer facilities

Chemical segregations and lab packs

Unknown waste characterization

Consolidation and chemical relocations

Decontamination and related projects

Drum preparation, inspection, and shipment readiness

Customer‑specific disposal and packaging requirements

Regulatory-driven documentation and shipping records

You’ll be working within EPA, DOT, TSDF restrictions and company policies to make sure every container is safe, compliant, and ready to move.

Your core challenge: turn messy, complex waste situations into clean, compliant shipping units—every single time.

Complying with all health and safety practices and acting safely at all times

Performing field work including consolidation, lab packs, and chemical relocations

Executing decontamination and other industry‑related field projects

Characterizing, segregating, packing, and labeling waste drums at customer locations

Preparing waste drums for pickup and transportation

Obtaining and recording accurate billing information for proper customer billing

Interfacing directly with clients to understand disposal and packaging requirements

Providing lab pack services and best management practice suggestions to customers

Ensuring overall quality control of materials to be shipped

Verifying drum counts and ensuring drum condition meets US DOT and company requirements

Completing administrative and transportation paperwork (packing lists, waste characterization forms, LDR forms, manifests, etc.)Working at one or more customer locations up to 40 hours per week

Bachelor’s degree in chemistry or related field, or a minimum of two years of waste disposal experience

Prior waste characterization experience preferred

Current OSHA 40-hour and DOT Hazardous Materials certifications preferred

Ability to pass a respirator qualification test Ability to lift 40 pounds and move 300‑pounds drums with a drum cart Professional attitude with effective communication skills

Basic computer knowledge and skills

Ability to multi‑task with good organizational skills

Ability to travel for one to two weeks once a quarter

You’ve been out in the field—at plants, labs, or industrial sites—handling real waste streams, not just reading about them. You’re comfortable around drums and manifests, and you know how to keep projects moving while staying firmly inside EPA and DOT rules.

You can walk into a storage room full of containers, quickly make sense of what you’re seeing, and drive a safe, compliant plan for segregation, packing, and shipment while keeping the customer found.
