High quality technical support is pivotal to this work.

We are open to the possibility for this to be a full or part time role within the team, and would therefore encourage applications from those who have an interest in supporting the faculty and a genuine desire to inspire and empower the next generation of scientists.

We appoint on potential as well as experience, and we are committed to nurturing staff development. In return, we offer you a friendly and supportive environment and the chance to make a genuine difference to the amazing young people that make up our academy.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and require all staff and volunteers to share and demonstrate this commitment. The successful candidate will have to meet the requirements of the person specification and will be subject to the relevant pre-employment checks which will, where applicable, include a health check, an enhanced DBS check, the Children’s Barred List check and satisfactory references.
