Job Description

Grifols is a leading global healthcare company with a strong legacy of improving health and well-being worldwide since its founding in 1909. Specializing in plasma-derived medicines and transfusion medicine, Grifols operates in more than 110 countries and regions, developing, producing, and marketing innovative medicines, solutions, and services. The company’s commitment to advancing healthcare has positioned it as a pioneer and trusted name in the industry. With a workforce that has more than tripled in size over the past decade, Grifols fosters a family-like corporate culture that values growth, innovation, and collaboration among its diverse teams.

The Center Medical Specialist role at Grifols presents a unique opportunity to be part of an international team dedicated to improving the impact of healthcare innovations on millions of lives. This position is based in one of the company's plasma donation centers, where medical professionals play a vital role in ensuring donor safety, regulatory compliance, and exceptional donor care. The Center Medical Specialist is responsible for performing physical examinations, establishing medical histories, and evaluating donor suitability according to state licensure and guidelines. This role requires a compassionate and knowledgeable professional committed to upholding the highest standards of care while educating donors about health risks and providing counseling concerning test outcomes.

The position offers competitive pay that reflects licensure and experience. The role promises career growth and promotional opportunities within a supportive environment and geographic flexibility across Grifols’ extensive network of more than 300 donation centers. Notably, the position does not involve working the third shift, supporting a balanced and healthy work life. Candidates can look forward to a comprehensive benefits package that includes medical, dental, and vision coverage, up to a 5% 401(k) match, tuition reimbursement, paid time off, holiday pay, and eligibility for performance-based bonuses. The role also involves active participation in employee training programs, administration of vaccination initiatives, and management of donor injuries and adverse events.

This position is physically engaging, requiring the ability to stand or sit for extended periods, perform repetitive hand movements, bend and twist, and occasionally lift weights up to 50 pounds. Key physical abilities such as color vision, hearing acuity, and precise hand coordination are essential. The work environment includes exposure to biological fluids, laboratory equipment, and cold temperatures within plasma freezers, necessitating the use of personal protective equipment to maintain safety.

A successful Center Medical Specialist at Grifols embodies independent judgment balanced with adherence to oral or written protocols, excellent communication skills to relay sensitive health information, and a proactive approach to adapting to variable demands in a fast-paced healthcare setting. Joining Grifols means becoming part of a company that values diversity and equal opportunity, ensuring all qualified applicants are considered fairly without regard to race, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or veteran status. Located at 535 South Dobson Road, Mesa, AZ, the plasma donation center offers a chance to contribute meaningfully to life-saving healthcare advancements while growing professionally in a globally recognized company.
