Kerja Global Drug Testing Operations Intern, Credit Bearing di Alcotech Group - Maukerja

Global Operations Intern – International Drug Testing

Alcotech is a Singapore-based company specialising in drug and alcohol testing, medical devices and diagnostic products.

We operate a global drug-testing programme, coordinating workplace and pre-employment testing for candidates in countries around the world.

We are looking for a Global Operations Intern to help manage these international cases from Singapore.

You will gain hands-on exposure to both international operations and the professional practice of workplace drug testing.

You will learn how drug-testing programmes are conducted in accordance with recognised international standards, including exposure to U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) drug-testing requirements, chain-of-custody procedures, specimen collection, laboratory coordination and programme administration. You will also gain exposure to working with SAMHSA-certified laboratories and internationally recognised testing partners.

You will help coordinate real cases involving candidates, collectors, clinics, toxicology laboratories, couriers and corporate clients across different countries.

What You Will Do

Learn Professional Drug Testing Operations

You will receive high-quality, structured training in drug and alcohol testing operations and learn how professional testing programmes are managed.

This may include:

• Learning drug-testing procedures based on recognised international standards, including how to maintain proper chain of custody
• Understanding U.S. DOT drug-testing requirements and workflows
• Understanding the roles and responsibilities of a specimen collector and a Designated Employer Representative (DER)
• Hands-on experience with the complete testing process from collection through laboratory analysis and reporting
• Understanding specimen integrity and collection-site procedures
• Learning how testing laboratories analyse and report specimens
• Understanding the differences between screening and laboratory confirmation
• Communicating professionally across different countries and time zones with international background-screening companies, corporate clients, specimen collectors and toxicology laboratories
• Learning how positive, negative, invalid and other test outcomes are handled within a professional testing programme
• Learning about confidentiality and the proper handling of sensitive testing information.

Manage Global Drug Testing Cases

• Receive and manage international drug-testing requests
• Review candidate locations and testing requirements and determine suitable testing arrangements
• Coordinate cases from initial request through testing and final report
• Review testing and chain-of-custody documentation
• Monitor active cases and proactively follow up on delays and outstanding actions
• Coordinate and communicate professionally with candidates, clients, collectors, clinics and laboratories across different countries and time zones

Expand and Manage Our Global Network of International Collectors & Laboratories

• Identify suitable collectors, clinics and laboratories around the world
• Contact and onboard new collectors and drug-testing partners
• Work with clients, candidates and local collectors to arrange appointments
• Maintain our international network of collectors and drug-testing partners
• Compare providers based on location, responsiveness, reliability and cost
• Assist with improving our internal processes and operating procedures

Handle International Logistics

Some international cases require us to send testing kits or collection supplies overseas.

You will help to:

• Arrange international shipment of testing equipment and supplies
• Track shipments and confirm delivery
• Coordinate replacement shipments where required
• Work with couriers and overseas partners to resolve delivery issues
• Assist with customs-clearance problems and other logistical challenges

Solve Operational Problems

International operations do not always go according to plan.

You may need to help resolve unexpected situations such as:

• No suitable collector near the candidate
• A collector or candidate suddenly becoming unavailable
• International shipment delays
• Appointment cancellations
• Missing documents or test reports
• Problems with specimen collection or chain-of-custody documentation
• Laboratory queries or incomplete testing information

We are looking for someone who enjoys finding solutions rather than simply reporting problems.

Commercial & Business Operations

You will gain exposure to the commercial side of the programme, including:

• Recording costs from overseas collectors and laboratories
• Checking invoices and maintaining pricing information
• Tracking completed cases for customer billing
• Assisting with monthly invoicing
• Comparing service-provider costs across different markets

What You Will Learn

By the end of the internship, you should have practical exposure to:

• Workplace drug-testing programmes
• U.S. DOT drug-testing processes
• Specimen collection
• Chain-of-custody procedures
• Toxicology laboratory workflows
• Drug-testing documentation and reporting
• Global operations management
• Cross-border logistics
• Client communication
• Operational problem-solving

You will gain an unusual combination of technical drug-testing knowledge and international business operations experience.

Who We Are Looking For

Students from Business, Supply Chain, Logistics, International Business, Operations, Healthcare, Biomedical Science, Life Sciences and other disciplines are welcome to apply.

Your field of study is less important than your ability to organise information, communicate clearly and solve problems.

You should be someone who:

• Is highly organised and detail-oriented
• Communicates clearly in written and spoken English
• Is comfortable communicating by phone and professional email with people from different countries
• Is persistent when following up on outstanding matters
• Can manage multiple cases simultaneously
• Enjoys solving unusual problems
• Can work independently after being given clear objectives
• Takes ownership of tasks
• Is comfortable learning technical procedures and standards
• Is comfortable using spreadsheets and online business systems

Previous experience in drug testing, healthcare or laboratory work is not required.

The Kind of Person Who Will Do Well

If you encounter a situation such as:

“The candidate is in a city where we do not currently have a collector.”

We want your first thought to be:

“Let me find three possible solutions.”

We value resourcefulness, persistence, initiative and good judgement.

Why Join Alcotech?

This internship offers something unusual: you will learn both how international drug-testing programmes are operated and how professional drug testing is actually conducted.

You will receive structured training in global drug-testing operations by working on real international cases.

You may be coordinating a collector in Europe in the morning, discussing a testing issue with a toxicology laboratory in the afternoon and arranging a new provider in another country the next day.

Strong interns will progressively be given responsibility for managing their own portfolio of international cases under supervision.

If you are interested in international business, healthcare operations, compliance, laboratory testing or workplace drug-testing programmes, we would like to hear from you.
