Job Description

Embark on a transformative journey as a Surgical Tech in Ohio, with a dynamic assignment in Zanesville that places you at the center of patient care, teamwork, and surgical excellence. In this specialty role, your keen eye for detail, impeccable sterile technique, and calm precision under pressure will directly influence outcomes, reduce infection risk, and elevate the patient experience. Your start date is 01 / 19 / 2026, and you’ll engage in a contract measured in weeks with a guaranteed 36 hours per week. Competitive weekly pay ranges from $2,357 to $2,499, reflecting the value of your expertise and the impact you bring to the surgical team. This is more than a job—it's a path to deepen your technical proficiency, broaden your clinical exposure, and grow within a supportive professional community dedicated to excellence.

Ohio is a state of natural beauty and vibrant culture, and you’ll find that beauty reflected in every moment you’re not in the operating room. From the tranquil scenery along the Ohio River to the lakefront charms of Lake Erie and the rolling landscapes of Appalachia, Ohio invites exploration. In Zanesville and surrounding areas, you’ll discover a blend of historic charm and modern vitality, with parks, museums, and local eateries that showcase the region’s warmth. When you’re ready for a little wider exploration, you’ll appreciate the opportunity to experience the state’s diverse towns and countryside, making your time away from the OR as rewarding as your assignments.

Location benefits extend beyond a single city. This opportunity offers the flexibility to work in Zanesville while also providing the option to rotate to various locations across the United States. You’ll gain exposure to multiple hospital environments, different surgical teams, and varied case mixes—each rotation designed to sharpen your aseptic technique, instrument handling, and intraoperative communication. Whether you’re assisting in complex orthopedic reconstructions, delicate neurosurgical setups, or time-sensitive trauma cases, you’ll build a versatile resume that demonstrates your adaptability, reliability, and leadership in the sterile field. The experience promises not only professional growth but a deeper understanding of how diverse healthcare settings operate, which strengthens your ability to collaborate, advocate for patient safety, and contribute to improved surgical outcomes.

Role specifics and benefits are designed with your professional trajectory in mind. As a Surgical Tech, you’ll be responsible for preparing operating rooms, ensuring sterile technique, handing instruments to surgeons, maintaining instrument sets, and supporting the team throughout dissections, closures, and post-op transitions. You’ll refine workflow efficiency, anticipate needs, and communicate clearly with circulating nurses, surgeons, and anesthesia teams. The position emphasizes ongoing development within the specialty, with opportunities to expand your scope, take on lead tech responsibilities, and participate in cross-training across subspecialties. The package includes a competitive bonus program, comprehensive housing assistance to ease relocation, and the possibility of contract extensions if you’re aligned with the facility’s needs and your own career goals. You’ll receive 24 / 7 support while traveling with the company, ensuring you have a dependable partner for scheduling, travel logistics, and on-the-ground assistance. In addition, there are extension opportunities to lengthen assignments based on performance, institutional demand, and your preferred rhythm of work, all designed to help you stabilize your career path while exploring new environments.

Company values center on empowering staff and investing in your long-term success. Our culture champions career advancement, mentorship, and a supportive workplace where your experience is respected, your input matters, and your professional development is a priority. You’ll join teams that share a commitment to patient safety, evidence-based practice, and continuous improvement, with resources and leadership dedicated to helping you grow from each assignment. The emphasis is on a collaborative atmosphere, constructive feedback, and clear pathways to broader roles within the organization as you demonstrate expertise and leadership in the sterile services suite.
