Challenges may include dealing with uncooperative individuals, managing time constraints, and adhering to legal compliance requirements.

  • IDEMIA Enrollment Agent: Process applicants for TSA PreCheck®, TWIC®, and HAZMAT endorsements. This includes verifying identity documents, capturing high-quality fingerprints, and processing payments through the IDEMIA portal.

  • Administrative Support: Manage appointment scheduling, answer phones, and maintain a clean, organized clinic environment.

Qualifications & Skills

  • Experience: Previous experience in drug testing, or medical assisting is preferred, but we will train the right candidate.

  • Certifications: Current **** or BAT certifications are a plus. You must be willing to become a certified IDEMIA Enrollment Agent (requires a background check).

  • Mobility: Must have a valid driver’s license, a reliable vehicle, and a clean driving record.

  • Professionalism: Ability to remain calm and professional in high-stress situations (e.g., post-accident scenes).

  • Tech-Savvy: Proficiency with tablets, fingerprinting scanners, and web-based laboratory portals.

Physical Requirements

  • Ability to lift up to 25 lbs (testing kits/equipment).

  • Ability to stand for extended periods during mobile events.

  • Must pass a rigorous background check and pre-employment drug screen.

Why Join Us?
