Job Description
Step into a pivotal role as a Surgical Technician in Lawrenceville, Georgia, where your precise hands, steady focus, and teamwork help surgeons deliver life-changing care every day. In this multi-week assignment, you will be part of a high-performing operating room team that values patient safety, meticulous technique, and compassionate care. Your day-to-day will weave clinical skill with critical thinking—from preparing sterile fields and selecting instruments to assisting in the dexterous choreography of complex procedures. As you set up, count, and verify materials, you will witness the moment when skill and care converge to support healing outcomes. This is more than a job; it’s a chance to contribute to a community of caregivers who uplift one another and uphold the highest standards of practice. And because Georgia is a state of remarkable contrasts—peaks and valleys in the Blue Ridge, moss-draped oaks in the Lowcountry, vibrant urban culture in Atlanta, and historic towns that tell stories of the old South—you’ll find inspiration in the places you call home when you’re not in the OR. Whether you’re exploring a weekend hike along the Appalachian Trail, strolling through Savannah’s historic squares, or enjoying coastal sunsets, your experiences here will broaden your perspective and fuel your professional growth.
Location Benefits: Lawrenceville sits in the heart of Gwinnett County, just a short drive from Atlanta’s prestige hospitals, diverse communities, and top-tier educational resources. You’ll enjoy a balanced lifestyle with access to parks such as Rhodes Jordan and Malone, a thriving dining scene, and cultural events that celebrate Southern hospitality. The local healthcare ecosystem is dynamic, offering exposure to a range of procedures and patient populations while you refine your craft in a supportive environment. For travelers who crave variety, the program also provides opportunities to work in other locations across the United States, inviting you to experience different hospital cultures, OR teams, and case mixes. This breadth of experience can accelerate your professional development, expand your network, and keep your practice fresh. Our travel-program structure includes housing assistance, relocation support, and the chance to extend your assignment if you want to deepen your contributions to a particular facility or region.
Role Specifics and Benefits: In this role, you’ll be the backbone of the sterile field and the efficient flow of the operating suite. Core duties include preparing and maintaining sterile fields for a broad spectrum of procedures, selecting and passing instruments with precision, and supporting surgeons and the broader OR team throughout the operation. You’ll maintain accurate instrument counts, manage specimen handling when required, and assist with positioning, draping, and wound closure under supervision, all while maintaining patient safety and comfort. You’ll be expected to anticipate needs, communicate clearly, and adapt to rapidly changing priorities as cases evolve. This position is a rich arena for growth within the surgical tech specialty: you’ll gain exposure to specialties such as general, orthopedic, neuro, and various subspecialties, while also receiving opportunities to cross-train with circulating nurses and other OR staff. Financially, you’ll receive a competitive weekly pay range of $1,217 to $1,293, with guaranteed 32 hours per week, and a start date of 01/12/2026 for multi-week assignments. The benefits package includes a sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and extension opportunities, giving you financial stability and the option to continue contributing where you’re most impactful. You will also have access to robust support services, including 24/7 assistance from dedicated travel coordinators, on-call clinical support, and a responsive helpdesk to address housing, credentialing, or logistics questions as you move between assignments. This program is designed not only to support your current role but to promote ongoing education and skill development so you stay at the forefront of surgical practice.
Company Values: The organization is deeply committed to empowering staff—recognizing the expertise you bring and investing in your career trajectory. The company cultivates a nurturing, inclusive environment where experienced technicians mentor newer colleagues and every team member’s contribution is valued. You’ll find structured pathways for advancement within the surgical services continuum, with opportunities to broaden your scope through specialty rotations, leadership roles, or forward-planning that aligns with your personal goals. The emphasis on compassionate care extends beyond patient interactions to the way teams support one another through recognition programs, ongoing performance feedback, and a culture that prioritizes work-life balance, resilience, and professional integrity. This is a place where you can grow not only your technical capabilities but your leadership potential, building a durable foundation for a rewarding long-term career in healthcare.
Call to Action: If you’re ready to apply and begin a transformative chapter that respects your skills and expands your horizons, this is the opportunity you’ve been seeking. Join a community of dedicated surgical professionals in Lawrenceville and beyond, bringing your precision, reliability, and collaborative spirit to a network that values your contributions and supports your ongoing development. The start date is January 12, 2026, with multi-week contracts offering guaranteed hours and the potential for extensions based on performance and facility needs. To take the next step, submit your application now and connect with a travel coordinator who will guide you through housing options, credential confirmation, and a seamless onboarding process.
