Anyone have an experienced university HP that I can steal? ;) In all
seriousness - this is a superior opportunity for a university or medical
'people-person' HP looking to take it to the next level. Successful

excellent training sessions, and enjoy mentoring and motivating other
EHS staff. Please forward the attached posting to HP's you feel may be
interested. To be considered, applicants must apply on line via the

supply more information directly. Thank you for your help!
