  • Occasional standing, walking, reaching, bending, twisting, and stooping may be necessary.
  • Vision capabilities required for this position include close vision.
  • Potential exposure to chemicals may occur.

Why Choose Catalent:

  • Comprehensive benefits package including Health, Dental, Vision, and Life Insurance.
  • Group Retirement Savings with employer contributions.
  • Employee recognition and reward programs.
  • Opportunities for professional and personal development, including tuition reimbursement.
