We have an exciting opportunity available for a Technician to join our Art and Technology Departments at Kepier.
We are looking to employ an enthusiastic, outgoing and adaptable individual who has the ability to succeed in the above role. The role will support the Art and Technology departments. Duties will include, but are not limited to, safety and maintenance checks on all the machines in the workshop, preparation of materials and resources for lessons as required (some of which would require using CAD/CAM software, including using the laser cutter, 3D printer and Kiln), ordering of materials, setting out equipment and assistance in the daily management of equipment and tools and their general repairs.
The successful candidate should have experience of working in a similar role, ideally within an educational setting. It is essential that the successful candidate has excellent organisational skills, works well both independently and as part of a team, is able to follow instructions and show initiative. The post holder will need to develop effective and safe in class practices, and will be expected to work in a classroom situation to support practical lessons.
The school is fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share in this commitment. As part of our due diligence and to comply with our obligations in line with Keeping Children Safe in Education, an online search of publicly available information will be undertaken for all shortlisted candidates. All School posts are exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and therefore applicants will be subject to appropriate background checks and vetting including an enhanced DBS check and checks against the children’s barred list.

Applicants who have not been contacted within 2 weeks of the closing date should assume they have been unsuccessful.
