Job Description

Surgical Technician – Ambulatory Surgery Center, Peoria, IL
Work where your skills are valued, your time is respected, and your contributions make a difference.
We are representing a leading ambulatory surgery center in Peoria, Illinois, currently seeking an experienced Surgical Technician to join their high-performing team. This is a full-time, weekday position offering a consistent schedule, competitive pay, and an environment centered on collaboration, respect, and quality care.
If you’re a skilled surgical tech looking for a better work-life balance without sacrificing your passion for surgical excellence, this could be your next ideal role.
Why This Role Stands Out
  • Predictable, Daytime Hours
    Work Monday through Friday from 6:30 AM to 3:00 PM. No nights. No weekends. No major holidays. This is a role designed to support your well-being both at work and outside of it.
  • Steady, Competitive Pay
    Earn $29 per hour, equating to $60,320 annually, with the stability and peace of mind that comes with consistent hours in a professional setting.
  • Supportive, Team-Oriented Culture
    Be part of a multi-specialty surgery center that prioritizes teamwork, communication, and mutual respect. The environment is fast-paced, but never chaotic, and your expertise is valued every day.
  • Opportunities to Broaden Your Skills
    While you may enter with a specialty, you’ll have the opportunity to cross-train across other surgical disciplines, expanding your capabilities and growing your clinical value.

What You’ll Do
As a Surgical Technician, your focus will be on delivering safe, efficient, and high-quality surgical support. Key responsibilities include:
  • Preparing for scheduled operations and setting up sterile instrument tables in compliance with all safety protocols
  • Assisting surgeons during procedures by passing instruments, holding retractors, and ensuring all surgical needs are met in real-time
  • Monitoring inventory and ensuring all tools and supplies are maintained, sterilized, and organized before and after each procedure
  • Maintaining a sterile environment and supporting room turnover between cases
  • Communicating effectively with nurses, anesthesia providers, and physicians regarding patient status and surgical needs
  • Providing care appropriate to patients ranging in age from 6 months to adult
  • Supporting patient safety by adhering strictly to aseptic technique and professional standards such as those established by AORN and AST

Who We’re Looking For
  • A minimum of two years of experience as a Surgical Technician
  • Familiarity with multi-specialty surgical environments or willingness to cross-train
  • Comfort working in a fast-paced, team-oriented setting
  • Strong understanding of sterile technique, instrumentation, and surgical safety standards
  • Certification is not required, but hands-on experience and clinical proficiency are essential
  • A high level of professionalism, reliability, and a commitment to patient-centered care

This Is More Than a Job – It’s a Career Move
Whether you're looking to regain your evenings and weekends, grow your surgical skills, or simply work in a place where your contributions are appreciated, this position offers a rewarding next step in your career.
