The Academic Laboratory

We are Akademiska Sjukhuset – one of Sweden's leading university hospitals. As a county hospital and provider of highly specialized care, we offer healthcare to two million people in Central Sweden. Here, something is always happening – a new life is born, a grandmother undergoes surgery, a colleague is hailed as a hero. With us, you will experience both tough challenges and fantastic events within a strong community of colleagues. Welcome with your application!

Our Operations

Clinical Chemistry and Pharmacology (KKF) is part of the Akademiska Laboratory operational area. We are a highly specialized unit performing diagnostics around the clock and providing guidance in the fields of chemistry and pharmacology. Our analyses are fast and quality-assured to streamline healthcare processes and support research and development. We also support patient-proximate operations in both inpatient and outpatient care. Approximately 140 employees work within KKF, and we always strive to be an attractive workplace with engaged colleagues and good leadership.

Your Assignment

This recruitment is for a full-time position in our phlebotomy unit at Akademiska Sjukhuset, Entrance 70. Here, you will work with meeting patients and taking blood samples from both children and adults. The work is meaningful, rewarding, and developmental. While most at KKF work in a high-tech laboratory environment, you will be one of our faces to the outside world in the important encounter with the patient. The position also includes rotation to the sample reception.

Your Qualifications

We are looking for a qualified assistant nurse with good experience in venous and capillary blood sampling.

To succeed and thrive in this role, you need to be meticulous, flexible, and enjoy meeting different people. You are humble, good at collaborating, and can handle a varying work pace. The position requires that you understand and speak Swedish fluently. Great importance will be attached to personal suitability and the ability to get up to speed quickly.

We Offer

We offer a permanent position in phlebotomy at Clinical Chemistry and Pharmacology, Akademiska Sjukhuset. A probationary period may apply. Start date according to agreement. Work is generally performed between 07:15 and 16:00. Interviews may take place continuously during the application period, so do not wait to submit your application.

Region Uppsala values the qualities that gender balance and diversity bring to the operations and welcomes applicants of all genders and with different backgrounds, functional abilities, and life experiences.

Region Uppsala designates all permanent staff for wartime service based on the needs of the total defense. This implies no obligations for the individual employee in peacetime but is solely a planning measure.

Before a decision on employment is made, checks of suspicion and criminal record registers will be carried out for all job seekers who, in the sought employment, may come to work within psychiatric care, habilitation, care for children and youth, or compulsory care for substance abusers, areas covered by optional register extracts. This thus applies to all who will work in patient-proximate roles, even if the current tasks are not intended to primarily involve work with the aforementioned patient groups.

This recruitment is carried out entirely by Region Uppsala, and we decline phone calls from recruitment agencies and ad salespeople.
