Job DescriptionEmbark on a rewarding journey as a Surgical Tech in Watertown, New York, where your precision, endurance, and unwavering patient focus will be at the center of world-class surgical care. This is your opportunity to join a dynamic team that values technical excellence, collaboration, and the life-changing impact you enable in the operating room. In this role, you’ll bring meticulous sterile technique, flawless instrument handling, and proactive support to surgeons and nurses who rely on your steady presence. As a traveling Surgical Tech with our program, you’ll have the chance to broaden your clinical perspective by working across diverse facilities across the United States while making a meaningful difference for patients and families you’ll never forget. Your next start date is 02/16/2026, and you’ll enjoy a structured assignment that delivers stability with weekly rewards and clear opportunities to grow within the specialty. The journey you’re invited to begin here is more than a job—it’s a pathway to broader surgical expertise, professional credibility, and lasting relationships within the healthcare community. New York State is renowned for its natural beauty, cultural richness, and dynamic communities, and Watertown offers a distinctive gateway to all of it. The beauty of the state shines in its outdoor playgrounds—from the sparkling waters of the St. Lawrence River and the scenic drives along the Thousand Islands to the tranquil trails of the nearby Adirondack foothills. In addition to outdoor adventures, the region provides a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere, vibrant local events, and a healthcare ecosystem that thrives on collaboration and innovation. Working in Watertown means you can enjoy a balanced lifestyle that supports your professional energy: easy access to regional and national destinations, a supportive community of healthcare professionals, and opportunities to unwind in the area’s parks, riverside paths, and nearby seasonal activities. For clinicians who value growth without losing the sense of place, Watertown is an ideal starting point that can complement your broader traveling assignments. Location benefits extend well beyond Watertown. As a Surgical Tech traveling with our program, you’ll have the flexibility to rotate through diverse facilities across the U.S., expanding your expertise across surgical specialties, equipment platforms, and perioperative workflows. You’ll gain exposure to varied case mixes, anesthesia teams, and OR cultures, which accelerates your professional development and elevates your résumé. The experience of adapting to different hospital environments—urban centers, rural settings, teaching hospitals, and community facilities—sharpens critical thinking, enhances problem-solving skills, and strengthens your ability to deliver safe, efficient care under pressure. You’ll be supported by a dedicated travel concierge team from day one, designed to answer questions, anticipate needs, and ensure your assignments align with your career goals and personal preferences. The role blends stability with exploration, offering 40 guaranteed hours per week, a clear start date, and the reliability you deserve. Role specifics and benefits anchor the opportunity in practical, tangible gains. As a Surgical Tech, you’ll prepare the operating room, arrange instruments and supplies, and pass equipment to surgeons with precision and timing. You’ll maintain sterile technique, monitor the sterile field, assist with positioning, and participate in instrument counts to prevent discrepancies. Your collaboration with surgeons, circulating nurses, and anesthesia teams is essential to patient safety and procedural efficiency. The position provides structured growth within the Surgical Tech specialty, including opportunities to expand scope, gain exposure to sub-specialties, and advance your leadership capabilities as you demonstrate readiness for more complex roles. We emphasize competitive compensation that recognizes your skill and commitment, including a sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and opportunities for contract extensions that reflect performance, reliability, and the demand for your expertise. This travel assignment is designed to be as supportive as it is rewarding, with 24/7 assistance from our traveling support team to address housing, transportation, credentialing, or any on-the-ground needs. You’ll operate with clarity and confidence, knowing you have a robust network behind you every step of the way. The company values empowering its staff are clear in every facet of the program. We’re committed to advancing your career through structured learning, mentorship, and access to continuing education that aligns with your professional goals. Our environment promotes collaboration, respect, and a constructive feedback culture that helps you thrive in high-pressure perioperative settings. You’ll be part of a community that prioritizes your well-being, recognizes your contributions, and supports your personal and professional growth through meaningful opportunities to extend assignments, shift schedules, and cross-site learning experiences. The emphasis on a supportive workplace environment reflects our belief that you perform your best when you feel valued, trusted, and equipped to elevate patient outcomes.

Picture yourself delivering exceptional care, building new professional connections, and expanding your technical prowess while enjoying the rich experiences of New York and the broader travel opportunities nationwide.
