School Laboratory Technician Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I recently completed a routine prep for a year 9 chemistry unit that involved setting up 12 demonstrations and three experiments across a week. The process highlighted how important reliable stock control and clear lab setup are for a smooth timetable. In my current role I use glassware, safety data sheets and calibration checks every day, and I’ve kept a working stock system that cuts prep time by about 20 minutes per session. In this role I’m looking to bring strong organisation, good safety habits and hands on problem solving to [Company Name]. I know how to prep demonstrations and experiments, manage slide and solution preparation, and keep accurate records. I’m comfortable with ordering equipment, coordinating with teachers and maintaining the lab to a high standard of cleanliness and safety. I’ve worked with risk assessments and chemical handling in line with school policies. One memorable week last term I prepared materials for five classes across two rooms, updated the equipment inventory, and ran a demonstration to explain the setup to a new relief teacher. The result was a smoother day with fewer substitutions and a positive, calm environment for students. I also improved the labeling and storage system for reusable lab items, which significantly reduced time spent locating gear during late periods. I’m available for a chat to discuss how I can contribute to [Company Name]. I can start within two weeks and bring practical experience with lab safety, record keeping and hands on equipment use. Kind regards, [Your Name]
